What is FriesArchiefNet

A lot of people do not know how to find various archives, or what information is held in those archives. The FriesArchiefNet aims to help these people by presenting information about Frisian archives in a simple form on the Internet. We hope that this website will show you the way round the Frisian archives and stimulate you to visit them.

The FriesArchiefNet is a combined project of the Province of Friesland (Provincie), all Frisian Water Authorities (Waterschappen), and all the municipalities (Gemeenten). The sites of the National archives within Friesland, as well as of the municipal archives of Leeuwarden are linked to our site. In case you want to know more about this site, please contact the Provincial inspectorate on archives (058-292-5458).

What information can be found on the FriesArchiefNet

The website aims to give the titles (titels) and inventories (inventarissen) of all archives. An inventory will show you which archives you will be able to see or ask questions about. To actually see the archives, you will still have to visit the organisation where it is kept. This is why the site also gives you addresses (adressen), names of people to contact (contactpersonen) and opening hours (openingstijden) of the various organisations.

During your visit to our site, you may find that not all the inventories have yet been entered.
