Suffolk Archives, a Suffolk County Council service, is home to 900 years of Suffolk’s history captured through thousands of documents. We are open for everyone to discover the past through our nationally and internationally significant collections.
Our collections are treasure houses of information in the form of original documents such as letters, reports, photographs, maps and plans which have been selected for preservation because of their lasting value to our society.
As the care takers of our county’s archival heritage, it is our responsibility to engage, connect and inspire the largest and most diverse audience possible. We are committed to achieving this though a varied programme of countywide events and exhibitions throughout the year.
Suffolk Archives strives to be an archive for all.
