    The Landesarchiv NRW is the memory of the state of North Rhine-Westphalia and its predecessor states. It safeguards legal and cultural assets of great value and serves the needs of society for historical information, transparency of administrative actions and legal security.

    The State Archive of North Rhine-Westphalia at the Duisburg inner harbor uses the former granary of the Rheinisch-Westfälische Speditionsgesellschaft (RWSG). In 2014, the granary became a "knowledge store", the "memory of North Rhine-Westphalia", so to speak. The new archive tower built above the granary is 76 meters high. There, archives from 1200 years of Rhenish history are stored on 22 floors. The adjoining wave-shaped building houses offices, a workshop for restoring books, files and documents, and a reading room.

    "... In Duisburg harbor, the architectural firm Ortner & Ortner Baukunst built the new building for the NRW State Archives (Rhineland Department) from 2010-14, which is currently the largest archive building in Germany. The listed warehouse building of the Rheinisch-Westfälische Speditions-Gesellschaft from the 1930s was extended by a 76-meter-high archive tower in the center, which also represents a monumental landmark. The design language of the tower is based on the old warehouse building with its protruding and receding gables.
