Baptism, marriage, and burial records with entries from the last 80-year period are located at the local parish church. Occasionally, pastors delay sending their old church books to the archives, so some local parishes may have records that are older than 80 years.

When writing, always include a self-addressed envelope with three international postage coupons. | Baptism, marriage, and burial records with entries from the last 80-year period are located at the local parish church.
