Ribera d'Ebre Regional Archive (ACRE)
Ribera d'Ebre Regional Archive (ACRE)
The Regional Archive of the Ribera d’Ebre (ACRE) is a new building that was built on a plot of more than 1,000 m2 that was owned by the City Council of Móra d’Ebre. Externally, it is designed as a single corner volume that is segregated into two volumes, which are accessed through an interior patio created by the screen walls and the building itself.
The Archive was inaugurated on April 24, 2007. It is attached to the Department of Culture and is part of the Regional Archives Network. Its management corresponds, jointly, to the City Council of Móra d’Ebre and the Regional Council of the Ribera d'Ebre.
The main mission of the center is to preserve and manage the funds of public administrations, institutions or individuals of the Ribera d'Ebre. The management and conservation of documentation is complemented by the equally important task of disseminating this documentary heritage and making it available to the citizens of the region.
The ACRE manages 74 documentary collections, totaling an approximate volume of 1,052.2 linear meters. The local administration collections stand out (Móra d’Ebre Town Council, Torre de l’Espanyol, Benissanet, Tivissa, Rasquera, Ginestar, Vinebre, Ascó and Palma d’Ebre). The Archive also manages important documentary collections of private ownership.
