General Archives of the Indies
The Archives of the Indies was founded in 1785 and housed in the building of the former stock exchange of Seville “Casa Lonja de Mercaderes”. The minister of that time José de Gálvez y Gallardo initiated the foundation in order to collect all documents regarding the Spanish colonies under one roof and complete the colonial history of Spain. The stock contains 43.000 documents which range over 80 million pages. Between 2002 and 2004 the building was reconstructed and reorganised. In 2005 a digitalising project was started which is going to make all documents available on the internet. The archive is open for all people with a legitimate interest and a valid user ID. The working facilities for researchers and archivists were moved to a close-by building.
