This list of archives contains many archives from around the world, and will never be complete. An archive is an establishment that collects and stores historical documents, photographs, and other media.
Feel free to add to as appropriate.
To prevent this page becoming excessively long, a separate page should be created when a country-list reaches some 15-20 entries, with a link from here.
