The Bavarian State Archaeological Collection publishes several series of publications: monographs, online publications, museum guides and brochures on special exhibitions. The main building in Munich is also home to the office for the annual journal "Bayerische Vorgeschichtsblätter", which is published by the Commission for Bavarian State History at the Bavarian Academy of Sciences and Humanities. Attention: Volume 2 "Münzschatz" is unfortunately out of print. The table of contents of the current volume 88 (2023) can be found here.
