In 1950 it was moved from the cellars of the building of the District National Committee in Opava to an archive depositary in a lacunae and fragmented state. The fonds was arranged in the years 1957–1958 and given an inventory. In 1962 accessions were added to it. The inventory, including addendum, is accessible on http://www.archives.cz/zao/digitalni_archiv.]]></p>
