Archive of the Diocese of Graz-Seckau

The archive of the Diocese of Graz-Seckau stores the files and charters of the bishopric and the episcopal ordinariate. The fonds reach from the 13th century to the present day. An important additional assignment is the accession in trust of historical archival fonds and register books of styrian parishes and their description and appraisal. Currently the registers of 288 and the archives of 234 parishes are in the depots in Graz. The library of the Diocese is affiliated to the archive and contains more than 40.000 books, mainly prior to the year 1900. The archive and the library are at disposal of the diocesan administration and can be used for any scientific research too.

Collection of Charters

The collection of charters in the archive of the Diocese of Graz-Seckau consists of two series: the charters of the bishopric (= charter series I, 1220–1960) and the charters of the parishes (= charter series II, 1202–1913). The digitized charters of the bishopric are part of the fonds Bistumsarchiv (archive of the bishopric) and property of the bishops of (Graz-)Seckau. The digitized charters of the parishes originate from the fonds Ordinariatsarchiv/Pfarrakten (archive of the episcopal ordinariate/files of the parishes) and their recipient is invariably a styrian parish.
