Pallars Jussà Regional Archive (ACPJ)
The Pallars Jussà Regional Archive (ACPJ) was inaugurated on 12 February 2009. It is located in a unique new building designed by architects Joan Arnalot and Elena Belart, and is located on the site of the former Casa Sullà, of a noble lineage from Tremp that dates back to the 15th century, within the old town of Tremp. The building also houses the headquarters of the Pallars Jussà Regional Council.
On 23 December 2009, a collaboration agreement was signed between the Department of Culture and Media, the Pallars Jussà Regional Council and the Tremp City Council for the management of the ACPJ. This agreement and the current archive legislation facilitate the incorporation of the Tremp municipal archive and the archives it held, such as the notarial archives of the Tremp district, the judicial archives, the archives of the municipalities added to Tremp, etc., into the new headquarters of the ACPJ.
This archive holds public and private documentation from the Pallars Jussà region in accordance with the provisions of Law 10/2001, on archives and document management. It also has an important newspaper library of publications from the region and an auxiliary library on historical and archival subjects.
