Wrexham Archives service is moving to a brand new home at Wrexham Library.
We’ll be sharing further details very soon. In the meantime, we are looking to improve the Archives Service and ask you to contribute by completing a survey.
Wrexham Archives hold records relating to the history of the County Borough of Wrexham since its creation in 1996 and records relating to the area when it was part of the old counties of Denbighshire and Flintshire.
The service actively collects and preserves historical records and makes them available to the public for research purposes. We are happy to add records to the collections, which relate to the history of the County Borough.
The records that we hold include maps and plans, photographs, newspapers, pamphlets and business and family collections. We also hold a large collection of local studies library books as well as providing internet access to a wide range of local and family history sources.
We value your comments and they will be used to inform decisions on the development of the service going forward, and in applications toward funding to improve the Archive Service in the long term.
More progress for Wrexham’s ‘Museum of Two Halves’
Wrexham Museum is now closed to the public so that the building can be redeveloped into the ‘Museum of Two Halves’ – a brand new museum for Wrexham alongside a Football Museum for Wales.
See the museum website for more info on the museum redevelopment project
