The Antiquarische Gesellschaft in Zürich , often shortened to Antiquarische or AGZ, is an association concerned with the study and preservation of the history of the canton of Zürich. The society has its headquarters next to the public records of Zürich.
The society was founded in 1832 by Ferdinand Keller as a scholarly society of the urban middle class. Despite being merely a private association, it was granted a near monopoly on the findings of archaeological excavations by both the city and canton. Since 1837 the AGZ has published its reports annually. In 1887 Jakob Messikommer who discovered and researched the prehistoric settlement Wetzikon–Robenhausen at Robenhausen established a regional section. 1862, the society initiated the Schweizerisches Idiotikon.
