Waterlands Archief
The Waterlands Archief was founded in 1979 as Streekarchief Waterland (Waterland Regional Archives), when the municipalities in the region agreed to let their historical archives and the statutory duties be managed by the archival institution. After the archives were moved to a new location in 2003 the name was changed to Waterlands Archief.
The online search engine can be found [here](http://waterlandsarchief.nl/archieven-en-documentatie).
The Waterlands Archief is open from Tuesday to Thursday from 9am to 5pm.
