MCP server for accessing Dutch World War II archives through the Oorlogsbronnen API. Provides structured access to historical records, photographs
MCP server for accessing Dutch World War II archives through the Oorlogsbronnen API. Provides structured access to historical records, photographs, and documents from 1940-1945 Netherlands. Exposed over MCP by the oorlogsbronnen mcp server, that capability becomes something an assistant can invoke while it works, not something you go and do afterwards.
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides AI-powered access to the Oorlogsbronnen (War Sources) database. This server enables natural language interactions with historical World War II archives from the Netherlands.
Everything the assistant can do here goes through one of these:
search_ww2_nl_archives — A powerful search tool designed to query the Oorlogsbronnen (War Sources) database for World War II related content in the Netherlands. This tool canInstallation goes through your MCP client rather than a global install: point it at Package on npm and it is fetched when the client starts. The copy-paste blocks for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are further down this page.
Among the database access options, the useful question is rarely "what can it do" but "what does it cost you to run" — permissions, credentials, and how much of your context its toolset consumes. Oorlogsbronnen's toolset — search_ww2_nl_archives — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by r-huijts; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
