Historia

Over the years, dating back to the time of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, efforts have been made to centralize archival institutions of Austria. Between 1940 and 1945 significant work was done to centralize these state archives, while Austria was part of Germany's Third Reich. In 1983 the "Archiv der Republik" was founded as part of the Austrian archival system. Consequently other departments of the State Archives had to transfer to it their official records of the First Republic, the National-Socialist era and the Second Republic. In 1981 a new building was created in Vienna-Erdberg (Nottendorfer Gasse 2-4, 1030 Vienna); today it holds the General Directorate, the restoration workshop, the central library of the State Archives and the following archival departments: Allgemeines Verwaltungsarchiv, Archiv der Republik, Kriegsarchiv and Finanz- und Hofkammerarchiv.
