The University Archives currently hold 134 different file groups from JGU institutions, as well as seventy estates of Mainz professors and eighteen collections of photos, posters, leaflets, etc.
We have created finding aids for the individual holdings, which provide an initial overview of which documents are relevant to your topic. Alternatively, you can search for our archival documents in the Archivportal-D. Please note that an up-to-date indexing status may not always be available to be displayed there. If there is no finding aid for a collection yet, we will be happy to support you with individual advice. Please get in touch!
