Hungarian National Archives

The National Archives of Hungary is the nation’s record keeper. Archival work in the 21st century is not only to collect, to catalog, and to restore historic documents, but also to serve the needs of society and the citizens, and provide them assistance in their research into history. Since its establishment in 2012, the Hungarian National Archives has been the central, general archives of Hungary, with smaller, regionally based organisational units and member institutions. The National Archives was created and established in 1756 in Bratislava with the aim of classifying, preserving records, publication and transfer of information, publishing books and other materials as well as professional education. The Archives was moved to Buda 28 years later.
