The State Archives in Munich is a place in which the historical and diplomacy documents of Iran and Germany are kept; classified docs which can shed light on the hidden angles of the two countries relations during the Safavid and Qajar dynasties.
The documents related to the period and years after include credentials of Iran’s ambassadors, invitations, meetings of officials, letters exchanged among kings as well as agreements. The doors of the Archives are hardly open to the public.
The head of Iran’s National Library and Archives Organization of Iran (NLAI) visited the Archives last month during which he proposed the electronic exchange of Iran-Germany’s historical documents and easing the terms for handing them to researchers.
According to Seyyed Reza Salehi Amiri, a total of 3084 dossiers related to Iran-Germany ties are kept in the Archives and hundreds of historical documents related to the two countries relations are held in Germany state archives and libraries.
