Housed in the Hôtel de Breteuil, the Bibliothèque des Archives nationales holds a rich collection of approximately 150,000 volumes and several hundred periodical titles related to archival holdings and the work of archivists. If his works are indicated in the catalog of the "Sudoc" and accessible to all in the reading room of the Caran, its oldest premises are only occasionally open to the visit, which will also be the opportunity to discover, in the Hotel d'Assy, a very beautiful 18th century lounge, work of Gilles Marie Oppenord.

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.
