Municipal Parchment Catalogue

One of the most emblematic and significant sets of documents in the AHCB’s municipal fonds is the one that makes up the parchment catalogue, with 2,688 documents produced between the 9th and 20th centuries.

These provide vital evidence of the birth and development of municipal government in the city, as well as many of the political administrative and legal actions undertaken by municipal government bodies in the medieval and modern eras.

A set of seven volumes was published between 2005 and 2013 cataloguing the municipal parchments produced from 885 to 1908.
