Archival history Despite its long administrative tradition, the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate of Jerusalem created a distinct archival service only in the early twentieth century and placed it under the authority of the archigrammateas. The Historical and Paleographic Archive of the National Bank of Greece Cultural Foundation and its director, Agamemnon Tselikas accomplished the classification of the archives from 1988 to 1991 and their catalog was published in Greek in 1992.

Content and structure area

Description Most of the material is hosted in a two-story building within the patriarchal complex and contains documents from the tenth to the late twentieth centuries. The content of the archives was continually expanded through the post-World War II period.
