Discover Neuenhausen's history: archive tour on July 15th!
Neuenhausen, a charming village in the Grevenbroich district, is all about history on July 15th. The archive in the Rhein-Kreis Neuss is continuing its popular “History on Site” series and invites everyone interested in history to take an exciting tour. The appointment is scheduled for 6 p.m. and the meeting point is at the Catholic parish church of St. Cyriakus.
The event with the motto “Archive to go” promises to be a real experience. Participants can look forward to a journey of discovery to historical places that are deeply rooted in Neuenhausen's past. Archive employees Sarah Kluth and Cornelia Schulte will present archive materials at various stations and thus bring history to life.

The tour lasts around 90 minutes and promises a few meters of altitude to overcome. If the weather is unfavorable, the event will be moved to the parish church so that no one has to stand in the rain. Registration is required to participate and can be done simply by email kreisarchiv@rhein-kreis-neuss.de or by telephone at 0 21 33/53 02 10.
The archive in the Rhine district of Neuss
The archive itself is not just a place of old documents, but a true treasure trove of regional history. It looks after the history collection for the cities of Dormagen, Jüchen and the municipality of Rommerskirchen and is also responsible for the history of the city of Grevenbroich. Not only official documents are stored here, but also personal documents of citizens who have close ties to the region.
The documents are available for those interested to view in person on five days of the week. Guided tours, open days, lectures and exhibitions are also offered that make local history come alive and tangible. There are special offers for schools that will probably arouse great interest among students.

For anyone interested in the history of Neuenhausen and the surrounding area, the tour on July 15th is an excellent opportunity. Stop by and let yourself be carried away by the local history!
