The purpose of this initiative is to tell students about the functions and services of the District Archives. It enables them to go on a guided tour of the Archives' facilities, see the various spaces and learn about the processes that go on there: classification, description, selection and removal, digitisation, conservation and so on.

They will see the district’s past and present reflected in different supports and formats (text documents, photographs, maps, posters, etc.) from various sources (including municipal, company, association and personal records, etc.).

This activity is adapted to the content of the curriculum at every educational level and to the needs of the students, enabling them to get a taste of historical research and administrative management.

Educational levels: compulsory and post-compulsory secondary education.

Approximate duration of the activity: 1 hour

Price: free.
