Type:
Genealogical association
Purpose:
The purpose of the association is to promote science and research in genealogical, family history and local history, including the neighboring scientific areas of heraldry, sphragistics and name research, as well as to secure archival materials. The purpose of the association is achieved in particular through the procurement of
relevant specialist literature and the collection of research materials and research papers in order to make it accessible to members and interested third parties. The association provides members and interested third parties with advice and information on all research-related questions within the association’s purpose and maintains a specialist library and useful collections and will support and promote publication.
The association works selflessly; it primarily pursues non-economic purposes. The association’s funds may only be used for statutory purposes. Club members do not receive any donations from the club’s funds. No person may benefit from expenses that are alien to the purpose of the association or from disproportionately high remuneration.
