The way in which the pictures, photos and sources about the history of the city of Kiel are presented does not appeal to me and I find the use far too complicated.

In addition, they are spread over several databases and, as far as I know, there is no overall overview.
The website “Das alte Kiel” takes a different approach, but also shows a nice overview.

For this reason, I have summarized this data – if it is freely accessible and may be published freely – here.
If you know of any other sources, I would be happy to hear from you.

Abbreviations:

  • ret – Image was retouched by me (scratches etc. removed, exposure optimized, details highlighted).
  • KielStA – Stadtarchiv Kiel
