Archives of the Republic of Dubrovnik (1022-1808)
The archives enable a detailed study of history and everyday life of the Republic as well as the City of Dubrovnik (1022- 1808). Furthermore, they provide plenty of data regarding the administrative and legal organisational structure of the Republic and give insight into the connections between Dubrovnik and foreign rulers and countries. The Republic of Dubrovnik had their embassies and other diplomatic missions on foreign courts all over the Mediterranean region and Europe. The mounting evidence of these contacts that include instructions to ambassadors, letters to consuls, charters of the European and world leaders, kings and emperors is carefully preserved and make a huge corpus of funds of the Republic of Dubrovnik. Given their continuity and the scope of the preserved holdings, as well as their age and value, these archival holdings are one of the richest in this part of Europe.
