Here are exemplary data sets listed, which have been created in different contexts or projects and are related to individual historical events. Therefore, they show only a small, but very interesting, part of the collections. In principle, the starting point is always the entrance page of the digitized collections; here you can find your way around the large subject groups of the Old Subject Catalogue. For history, ethnography and geography, digitized material can be found in a five-digit range. This set is also displayed via the OAI interface.
