The Acadian Archives are the premier center for the study of Acadian history and culture in the US Northeast. The rich collections of the archives chronicle the story of French heritage peoples in the St. John Valley and beyond. These collections include unique genealogical resources, photographs, maps, and parish records in addition to rotating exhibits. More than a research center, the archives also hold cultural activities throughout the year.
