State Archives in Mons, National document repository in Mons, Belgium
The State Archives building in Mons houses kilometers of historical records, administrative documents, and genealogical materials from Belgian institutions and private collections.
The facility forms part of the State Archives of Belgium network, established after the nation's independence in 1830 to preserve government and provincial records.
The archives maintain extensive collections of parish registers, civil status records, and military documents that reflect the social evolution of Belgian society.
Researchers can access the reading rooms from Tuesday to Friday between 9:00 AM and 4:30 PM, with mandatory reservations made two working days in advance.
The State Archives in Mons returned a medieval charter dated 1176 to their collection in 2023 after its recovery from an international art institution.
