Municipality of Veldhoven
Where is the building file of your house in Veldhoven?
Which archive holds the file depends on the year the permit was granted. Below is where to be for each period, with the date on which I checked it.
This covers Veldhoven, Meerveldhoven, Oerle, Zeelst and Zandoerle as well.
Period by period
The counters in Veldhoven
In Veldhoven the older files are with the regional archive in Eindhoven and have not been digitised yet, so expect a longer wait. Recent years come from the municipality by email.
1906 to 1990
Regionaal Historisch Centrum Eindhoven
From 1906 to 1990 the Regionaal Historisch Centrum Eindhoven (RHCe) holds the files, in two series, 1906 to 1945 and 1946 to 1990. Both are on paper and not yet digitised. The oldest series can only be found through cadastral research, not by address. Requests go through the form on the RHCe website; expect a longer processing time.
As I noted it in Dutch, with the links and the exact terms you will need on their website:
(RHCe), in twee reeksen (1906 t/m 1945 en 1946 t/m 1990), allebei analoog en nog niet gedigitaliseerd. De oudste reeks is alleen via kadastraal onderzoek te vinden, niet op adres. Aanvragen met het formulier op https://www.rhc-eindhoven.nl/bouwdossiers-aanvragen, tel. (040) 264 99 40, en reken op een langere doorlooptijd.
I can request this file for you.
Worth knowing

As I noted it in Dutch, with the links and the exact terms you will need on their website:

I checked these details on 6 September 2026. Counters and period boundaries change; if something no longer holds, please tell me.

Rather not do this yourself
I put together the file for your address
For € 145 including VAT I collect the building file and everything else known about your address that can matter structurally: the cone penetration tests nearby, the soil profile, the foundation picture of the neighbourhood, the plot details and the aerial photographs year by year. With it you get a reader's guide in English that says what is there and what is missing. For € 295 I also map the load-bearing structure of the house: the walls that carry load on each floor, the roof, the foundation and what keeps it stable. Only after what the public records say, without the archive? Then there is the address report for € 95.
Have me do the structural calculation afterwards and this amount comes off it. If the archive holds nothing, you get your money back.
