In 1952 it was reorganized into the County State Archive (dependent to Cracow Voivodship State Archive, next: State Archive of Cracow and Cracow Voivodship). In 1976, according to the reform of state administration, the archive became the branch of Cracow Voivodship State Archive (after 1983: a branch of Cracow State Archive).
