Archives départementales de la Somme
Created in 1796, the Departmental Archives carry out missions defined by the decentralisation law of 22 July 1983 and the law on archives of 15 July 2008.
The reading room is open from Monday to Thursday, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. without interruption. Documents may be requested from 9:00 a.m. to 4:15 p.m. without interruption (the last document is delivered at 4:30 p.m.). The annual closure takes place during the first two weeks of August (contact us for the exact dates). Please check the homepage of the website for the dates of exceptional closures.
Inventories, directories and files are available to the public on the site and in the reading room.
Readers are first welcomed by an Archives employee who carries out the administrative registration. This registration is then completed, for the scientific part, in the reading room by the room supervisor. A valid official identity document is required to establish your reader's card, which is valid for one year, starting on your first visit.
The staff of the Archives can, on a given subject, provide information on existing archival resources and finding aids. However, they are not obliged to carry out research on behalf of the interested parties.
