Arquivo Eclesiástico da Arquidiocese de Mariana

The Arquivo Eclesiástico da Arquidiocese de Mariana contains ecclesiastical records, administrative documents, and sacramental registries from the Archdiocese of Mariana.

Founded on May 30, 1965, the archive has preserved vital church documents since the establishment of the archdiocese in the 18th century.

The collection includes baptism records, marriage certificates, and death registers that document the religious practices and social development of Minas Gerais.

Researchers can access the archive by scheduling an appointment and providing personal identification details such as name and CPF number.

The archive building survived a fire thanks to Monsignor José de Sousa Telles Guimarães, who protected the irreplaceable historical documents.
