BMGN: Low Countries Historical Review is a peer-reviewed open-access academic journal covering the history of the Low Countries, which is taken to include the Netherlands and Belgium and their colonial and international involvements. It is published by the Royal Netherlands Historical Society (Koninklijk Nederlands Historisch Genootschap), with articles appearing either in Dutch or in English.
The journal was established in 1877 as the Bijdragen en Mededeelingen van het Historisch Genootschap (English: "Contributions and Communications of the Historical Society"). In 1969 it absorbed the Bijdragen voor de Geschiedenis der Nederlanden (English: "Contributions on the History of the Low Countries"; established in 1946). The journal obtained its current title in 2012, when the journal also became open-access.
