==Sweden Medieval Records== | |||
The Medieval Collections include parchment/velum and paper documents (approximately 18,500) along with copy books, estate and other document lists, land records and account books. (Languages: [[Latin Genealogical Word List|Latin]], Old Swedish, and Low German). Most of these documents were gathered by the crown at the time of the reformation during the 1500’s. A large number of documents from the Middle Ages have since been collected by the National Archive. Of special note is a large installment of medieval records belonging to the The Royal Swedish Academy of Letters, History and Antiquities (Vitterhetsakademien: VHAA). | |||

<br>The originals are very fragile. As a result, one always looks first to the photo copies of the Diplomatarium (or so called fotostatdiplomatariet) for copies of parchment or paper records in the large chronological series up to 1520. These bound volumes are found in large format in the research office. Copies of the National Archives’ various codicils including all C- and D- manuscripts are found there in addition to many of the most important Swedish collections from the Middle Ages not found in the National Archives. Other copies of records both loose and bound are available in the archive store and can be ordered. | <br>The originals are very fragile.

For the time period prior to 1420, refer to the two volumes of the '''Swedish Diplomatarium (Svenskt Diplomatarium)''' (which covers up to June, 1369, the years 1371 to June, 1374 and 1401—1420) and for missing years refer to '''Svenska Riksarkivets Pergamentsbref '''(RPB/SRP) 1351 – 1400 I-III (1866-72) and '''Svenska Riksarkivets pappershandlingar''' (MRA 1887), the latter being less useful. There is a modern card catalog for these documents. | For the time period prior to 1420, refer to the two volumes of the '''Swedish Diplomatarium (Svenskt Diplomatarium)''' (which covers up to June, 1369, the years 1371 to June, 1374 and 1401—1420) and for missing years refer to '''Svenska Riksarkivets Pergamentsbref '''(RPB/SRP) 1351 – 1400 I-III (1866-72) and '''Svenska Riksarkivets pappershandlingar''' (MRA 1887), the latter being less useful.
