The Scientific Work of the National Archives of Hungary Trade mark of the Budapest linen draper's company (Hungarian Linen Company) of Armin Heksch Budapest, 22 January 1907. Since its reorganisation in 1874, the National Archives of Hungary has played the leading role in domestic historical research for a long time. Many of our most distinguished historians worked here for shorter or longer periods, some of whom were elected members of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences. Although in the middle of the 20

th century, as a result of the establishment of the Academy's own institute of history and the change of archival roles, the National Archives lost its unique place in historical science, it still remained an important player in Hungarian scientific life. The Archives is a significant workshop of several branches of historical science and the home of archival science.
