In the “Archives Introduce Themselves” section, we showcase the various data providers of the Archivportal-D and provide links to their collections. We are delighted that the Neubiberg Municipal Archive is among them!
The Neubiberg Municipal Archive serves as the central repository for the municipality’s historical records. Its collections document the town’s development and are available for consultation and use by residents and researchers alike.
The municipality’s roots date back to the 11th century, when Unterbiberg first appeared in a document around 1035 as “villa piburg.” With the settlement of new residents around 1900 and the official approval of the name “Neubiberg” in 1903, a new phase of local development began east of Unterbiberg. The town received a decisive boost in 1904 with its connection to the Munich–Giesing–Aying local railway. The construction of the airfield beginning in 1933 ultimately marked a profound turning point that also influenced the settlement structure in the long term and contributed to preserving the town’s garden city character. In 1975, the entire municipality of Unterbiberg was renamed Neubiberg.

The municipal archive preserves historically significant documents from the local government as well as a wide range of supplementary material on local history. In addition to official records and administrative files, this includes, for example, resident and business registers, maps and plans, photographs and postcards, as well as printed materials, newspaper clippings, films, artifacts, and private estates related to the history of the municipality.

The holdings date back to the mid-19th century. In addition, the archive preserves larger collections related to recent history, such as those concerning the “Flugstop Neubiberg” campaign founded in 1988, which organized a series of protest events with thousands of participants against flight operations at the Neubiberg airfield.

Since September 2026, the majority of the archival materials has been housed in the town hall’s extension, where a modern storage room provides optimal conditions for the long-term and proper preservation of the documents. The archive supports citizens, local historians, and scholars in their research, promotes historical projects, and helps to bring Neubiberg’s diverse history to light.
