International Archives Day will be celebrated on Tuesday 9 June, coinciding with the date of the creation of the International Council on Archives, a commemoration which the Ministry of Education, Culture and Sport is joining.

The State Archives have organised an open day with guided tours, conferences and the screening of the documentaries: “The Last Sephardic” and “Invisible Heroes: African-Americans in the Spanish War”.

In addition, the State Archives will pay tribute to the archivists Ms. Vicenta Cortés and Ms. Mercedes Dexeus Mallol.
