The Archive of the Universitat de València is an essential service that ensures the preservation, organization, and access to the documentary heritage generated by the institution, from its foundation to the present day. Now, through a series of photographs, we offer a direct look at the facilities and the work carried out there — often invisible but essential to the functioning and memory of the University.

The archive is divided into two main sections with complementary functions: the Historical Archive and the Intermediate Archive.

Historical Archive: a collection at the service of research
