The Regional Archives of Koper was established as an autonomous unit in 1956 and its Piran Unit was established in 1974. The archives preserve around 5,000 linear metres of archival records, ranging from the oldest documents, which come from Piran Municipality and date from the Venetian Republic period of the mid 12th century, to the period of the Republic of Slovenia from 1991 onwards. Some records which should be kept at the Regional Archives of Koper are in fact located in Ljubljana, Trieste, Venice, Udine, Rome, Rijeka, Pazin and Belgrade. Digitisation of records has been ongoing since 1994.
The library of the Regional Archives contains around 4,600 books, and the entrance area offers space for small exhibitions.
The Regional Archives of Koper has co-operated with the archives of the Republic of Croatia and the National Archives of Italy on various international projects relating to culture and digitisation, which are funded by the EU and the Republic of Slovenia.
