The Archives Nationale





It was nice to be able to go into the archives and see what the place was like. Typically the archives are closed to the public but as it is a holiday they opened them up so folks could walk through, look at the gardens and enjoy. They are building a new modern archives just outside of Paris, and once that is open this archive will hold only ancient records. There is also a rumor that the government might sell the building (a hotel particulier) to become a hotel. Hmmm. It would be a beautiful place to stay.
