Archival History

Bundesarchiv (Germany)

Acquisition

Forms part of the Claims Conference International Holocaust Documentation Archive at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum. This archive consists of documentation whose reproduction and/or acquisition was made possible with funding from the Conference on Jewish Material Claims Against Germany.

Source of acquisition is the Bundesarchiv (Selected Record Gropus: DC, FW, KL/Haffa, ZA VI, ZB, ZB II, ZC, ZCII, ZJ, VgM, VGH and ZM). The documents were part of the East German archival system, then they were transferred to the Bundesarchiv. The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum's International Archives Project acquired the microfilms from the Bundesarchiv in Berlin, Germany, in 2002. The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum Archives received microfilms in 2002, and accretions in 2003, 2004, and 2005. The entire collection was digitized in 2013.

Materials are of mixed provenance, mostly on persons involved in Nazi war crimes, but are primarily papers generated by the German Security police and the Sicherheitsdienst (SD) between 1933 and 1945 and German prosecutors and courts after 1945.
