Records on Seizure and Restitution:
June 2019: Digitisation of Bundesarchiv (German Federal Archives) records on Nazi looting and restitution
Many of the records in the B323 Record Group (Treuhandverwaltung für Kulturgut bei der Oberfinanzdirektion München) (Trustee Administration for Cultural Property at the Regional Finance Office Munich) have now been digitised and are freely accessible.
A list of the remaining records in the B323 Record Group which will be digitised during the course of 2019 has been made available by the Bundesarchiv - see list here. Some photos have also been digitised - B 323/57-67 and B 323/311 - and are available in the Bundesarchiv picture archive here under the search term B323.
The B323 group includes files, documents and photographs that enabled the clarification of the ownership status of looted cultural property and its restitution after 1945.
