The National Archives of Hungary is the nation's record keeper. Archival work in the 21st century is to collect, to catalog, and to restore historic documents, but also to serve the needs of society and the citizens, and provide them assistance in their research into history. These valuable records are preserved and made available for you if you want to research your family’s history or a historical topic that interests you.[2]
