The Archives of the Republic of Slovenia

The Archives of the Republic of Slovenia is the country's national archive, holding state records of nationwide significance — spanning interwar documents, materials from the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, and records of independent Slovenia since 1991. Founded in 1945 and overseen by the Ministry of Culture, it is located in Ljubljana's old town. The institution primarily serves historians, legal researchers, and genealogists rather than general visitors, functioning as a working archive rather than a public cultural venue.
