The archive collection consists of printed and handwritten douments, including 300,000 maps and drawings and about 14 million photographs. Moreover, the library holds around 60,000 reference works. The Nationaal Archief holds many archives relating to World War II, such as archives of the Dutch Ministry of Defence in London while in exile and the archives of the Militair Gezag (military authority) that operated in the Netherlands after the war. There are also many archives relating to post-war ‘cleansing’ (zuivering), such as the cleansing of the civil service but also the courts of special criminal jurisdiction.
