The DKG collection was organized according to a uniform concept. It initially provided very differentiated information about the sponsors and activities of the German colonial movement and then mainly documented the general and especially the German colonial history. The more extensive regional section deals with all areas in which the German Reich pursued colonial interests, i.e. 1. Togo 2. Cameroon 3. Namibia / German South-West Africa 4. Tanzania / German East Africa 5. Rwanda / German East Africa 6. Burundi / German East Africa 7. People's Republic of China / Kiautschou (Tsingtau) 8. Papua New Guinea / Kaiser-Wilhelmsland 9. Palau / Caroline Islands 10. Federation of Micronesia / Caroline Islands 11. Northern Mariana Islands (USA) / Mariana Islands 12. Marshall Islands 13. Nauru 14. Western Samoa / German Samoa. The settlement areas of Germans in Latin America (e.g. Blumenau) or Australia should also be mentioned. The main subject areas here are voyages of discovery and exploration, geology and mining, vegetation and native agriculture, landscapes and animal studies, the settlement activities of natives and whites, schools and missions, traditional trade and transportation, the introduction of modern means of transport (port facilities, railroads, roads), economic development by Europeans, protection forces and uprisings, voyages of discovery and exploration. In addition, the same topics are presented as examples for colonies of other states in Africa, Asia, Australia and Oceania. Towards the end of the Second World War, the Society's picture collection was moved to mining tunnels in Thuringia, where it was seized by American troops and finally, together with the German Colonial Society's library of around 15,000 volumes, transferred to the Frankfurt am Main City and University Library under its then director Hanns Wilhelm Eppelsheimer. According to preliminary estimates, the total number of images is at least 55,000, with the few old large glass plate negatives, the hand-colored large slides and the earliest color slides from the overseas territories being particularly valuable."
