Request construction drawings from municipality archive

Do you need construction drawings or other building information on an existing building? For example, for a renovation? Then you can request the building file from the municipal archives.

To do this, you can call (14-045) or send an e-mail stating "request construction file" along with the relevant address and your contact information to gemeentehuis@kerkrade.nl.

There are costs associated with requesting documents from the archive (Legesverordening gemeente Kerkrade 2023, Chapter 7 Gemeentearchief, art. 1.7.1.

The cost depends on the size of the documents requested (speak: the time required to gather the documents) but in most cases is 17.20 euros.

Should you require copies, there is an additional charge. Taking your own photographs of records is permitted.
