With the agreement signed between the Department of Culture of the Catalan Goverment (Generalitat de Catalunya) and the City Council of Cervera, on 20 January 1982 the Regional Historical Archive of Cervera was created, integrated into the Network of Historical Archives. In February 1988 the current headquarters were inaugurated in the building of the University of Cervera, and in 1995 it was renamed the Regional Archive of La Segarra. The Regional Council exercises management powers.

Among its collections are those of the City Council of Cervera and that of the Notarial District. Of the former, mention should be made of the set of parchments from 1072; the Book of Privileges of Cervera (BCIN); the Act of the General Court of 1359 (BCIN); the Green Book of Reason (1448-1637); the series of “Councils” (begun in 1332), with Clavaria, Manifest, Cadastre, L’obra dels murs, Veïnatge... Of the notarial collection (1325-1917), it is important to highlight the large number of protocols preserved, with three books of ordinations and deliberations of the old College of Notaries of Cervera (1366-1684). Among the collection of manuscripts, it is worth mentioning the books of the Mystery of the Passion (16th century).
