The Departmental Archives carry out the legal archiving tasks of the State administrations defined for this level, of the Departmental Council, and of the municipalities that deposit their archives. They also receive private archives and house a heritage library specialising in history. All these resources, once they have been listed and packaged, are made available to the public. https://pierresvives.herault.fr/683-les-missions-des-archives-departementales-de-l-herault.htm
