Viewing the Archives

Some documents are not freely available and are subject to specific consultation procedures and special permission.

  • Documents requiring clearance (public archives)

Certain categories of documents have restricted access dates, as per Article L. 213-2 of the French Heritage Code. However, clearance can be requested from the Reading Room supervisor prior to the legal access date.

  • Documents requiring permission (private archives)

According to Article L.213 6 of the French Heritage Code, owners may place conditions on accessing and copying the documents they have given to or deposited with the archives service, and these conditions must be respected. Permission to consult such documents must therefore be requested in advance from the right-holders.

  • Documents in poor condition

For conservation reasons, the consultation of certain documents may be restricted due to their material condition. The Reading Room supervisor reserves the right to grant or refuse exceptional permission to consult such documents.
