The Bayer Corporate Archives
"Bayer – a fascinating story"
The Bayer company archives are the central storehouse for information pertaining to the colorful history of the company since its establishment in 1863.
It is the place where important records relating to the company’s history – documents, photographs, films, advertisements, publications, and other valuable items – are examined, evaluated and systematically archived. The company’s historians encourage an open dialogue and close contacts with the past both inside and outside of the Bayer Group, and thus make a valuable contribution to the corporate culture.
