Heimat- und Familienforschung Niederbayern e. V. is an association founded in 2026 to bring together people researching family and local history in Lower Bavaria. It aims to make their work more visible and effective by creating a place to share knowledge, develop projects and connect with fellow researchers. The association welcomes people interested in exploring the region’s families, communities and heritage.

Its website provides practical research support, including guidance to important archives, helpful links, online local histories, researcher contacts and member websites. Visitors can also access regional resources such as a genealogy database, a mill database, the ROSI resource, a cemetery album and information about the former Griesbach district court. The association shares news, publications, research tips and event information, and organizes local groups and regular meetings across Lower Bavaria. These groups offer introductions to their research areas, annual programs, project updates and opportunities for members to collaborate. The association also publishes information about its work, membership and events, and invites donations to support its platform for family and local history researchers.
