The Land Registry (Kadaster) is a valuable source of information for Oud Aalten. This agency registers who owns land and buildings, the rights associated with them, and the precise location of parcel boundaries. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Land Registry has officially existed in the Netherlands since 1832<\/a>, but its origins lie in the Napoleonic era (1810\u20131811), when the entire country was surveyed and parcels were registered by name to ensure fair land taxation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For quick orientation on cadastral information around 1832, we consult HisGIS<\/strong><\/a>. For cadastral data from the mid-19th century onwards, we use the Kadaster Archiefviewer<\/strong><\/a> (subscription required). This allows us to look back through the registers from approximately 1850 to 1985. For current parcel numbers, we consult the (commercial) website kadastrale kaart<\/strong><\/a>. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\"Land<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Researching cadastral information is often quite a puzzle; by combining these sources, a fairly complete and reliable picture usually emerges.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

Information in the Land Registry<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  • Auxiliary maps <\/strong>\u2013 We track parcel boundaries through time using (historical) cadastral maps. The Kadaster Archiefviewer contains the most important historical maps and registers, making it possible to follow changes step-by-step via so-called auxiliary maps<\/em>. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Cadastral ledgers <\/strong>\u2013 The ledgers contain the owner, the use (e.g., house, yard, pasture, or factory), area, and subsequent mutations for each parcel.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Please note:<\/strong> mutations are recorded by fiscal year (the administrative year of registration). The actual change\u2014such as construction, subdivision, or demolition\u2014often took place 1 to 2 years earlier! <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n
