"With the conquest of Vaud's independence and the transition to the Helvetic Republic, the country of Vaud was retroceded in 1798 with a large part of its holdings then in Bernese hands. The need to create the\"Vaudois Archive\" to secure and preserve these important documents, testifying to the administrative functioning and history of the canton, soon became apparent. \r\n\r\nThe first place chosen to house the archives is emblematic: between 1798 and 1955, the Cantonal Archives were housed in the belfry of Lausanne Cathedral. This period was marked by a number of important milestones, such as the drafting of the first regulations for the Vaud Cantonal Archives in 1826, the creation of the first post of State Archivist in 1837 and the opening of the first reading room to the public in 1919. \r\n\r\nAs the number of documents in storage continued to grow, the Archives moved in 1955 to the rue du Maupas in Lausanne (now the site of the Archives of the City of Lausanne). \r\n\r\nAs early as 1890, a building specifically dedicated to the archives was requested, but it was not until 1971 that the cantonal authorities reserved a plot of land in the commune of Chavannes-près-Renens for this purpose. Located in a place called\"La Moulin\", which takes its name from the nearby mill, it is a stone's throw from the Dorigny university site, which was then under construction. After the Grand Council granted two successive credits for the construction, the ACV moved in on 15 April 1985. "@eng . _:B2e59c5ae8dc0f8e504f36f1844744566 . .
