The digital collections of the city archives of Utrecht provide access to a wide number of documents that are primarily related to the history of the city.
There are two main sections, each with their own search options:
The newspaper section [1] contains a collection of historical Utrecht newspapers. Amongst others, users can consult all the volumes of the digital version of the Utrechts Nieuwsblad during the years 1893-1967. Because of copyrights and agreements with publishers, only part of each page (1400*1800 pixels) can be selected, opened, or downloaded.
The manuscripts section [2] contains scans of manuscripts from before 1800. There is an image of the original document, a transcription, and a Dutch translation (of Latin texts only) available, in addition to explanatory notes.
The image database [3] provides access to some 145.000 images, postcards, movies, and drawings.
There is also more digital archival material [4] available, but consulting these digital documents is not free of charge.
The digital archives of Utrecht are maintained by the Utrechts Archief [5]
