UNSER BOCHOLT magazine

Our Bocholt

The magazine "UNSER BOCHOLT" has been published for 75 years by the Verein für Heimatpflege Bocholt e.V. with the support of the city of Bocholt. The magazine documents the cultural, historical, architectural, political, linguistic and natural history development of the city and region of Bocholt and serves as a platform for dialogue.

Since the first issue in 1950, around 300 issues with 4,420 articles on 18,000 pages have been published. The journal is therefore a treasure trove of the city's history and a reference work for academics and the general public. All older issues of the journal can be viewed in the city library or the city archives, and work is currently underway to make them available online.
