Direzione Generale per gli Archivi

The Direzione Generale per gli Archivi steers archival policy and archival management, protection and preservation in Italy; coordinates State Archives regional branches; controls State Archives regional branches and the Central State Archives.

The Direzione Generale per gli Archivi directly preserves no archival archival holdings. However, its website gives access to the Italian general archival catalogue, where archival holdings held by State Archives regional branches, the Central State Archives, regional, municipal and private archives are described.
