In this section, you will find further information on getting here as well as advice on what you should bring and what to expect on your first visit.

Visitors from further afield can also access local information and useful links on other things to do in the area.

PRONI holds a wealth of public records and privately deposited archives relating largely, but by no means exclusively, to Northern Ireland.  Whilst we can’t guarantee you will find exactly what you are looking for, staff will try and point you in the right direction and provide you with as much advice and guidance as possible during your time here.  

Please note that some of our records are currently closed to the public and a small proportion are stored off-site.  If you are visiting PRONI to view a specific archive it is advisable that you contact PRONI in advance to check availability, particularly if your time is limited or you are travelling from overseas.

We look forward to seeing you and hope you enjoy your visit to PRONI!
