Come and discover the rockery decorations of the apartments of the Prince de Soubise. Designed by architects Delamair and Boffrand, it has housed the National Archives since 1808. On the ground floor, the permanent exhibition presents a selection of archives showing the diversity of media and forms of documents (sheet, scroll, register, iconographic documents...). The composite gardens of the site were redeveloped by landscape architect Louis Bénech.

Created at the time of the French Revolution, the National Archives collect, preserve and enhance the central archives of the State. Nearly 300 linear kilometres of archives, from the 7th century to the present day, are preserved. They are now located on three sites: Fontainebleau, Paris and Pierrefitte-sur-Seine, the latter being open to the public since January 2013\. The Pierrefitte-sur-Seine site, designed by architect Massimiliano Fuksas, is dedicated to the archives after the French Revolution; it houses nearly 180 linear kilometres of public and private archives accessible in the reading room.
