Archives
The Archives of The Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Washington is the official institutional repository of Archdiocesan records. These include the papers of the Archbishops of Washington, the records of the offices of the Archdiocese, the history of its parishes, and historical documents and objects. The records in the Archives date primarily from the 1930s forward but there are some significant items that date back to the eighteen and nineteenth centuries.
