The archive was established after the end of World War II in Yugoslavia in 1947 by the decision of People's Republic of Croatia authorities.[3] In December of 1991, during the Croatian War of Independence, the archive together with other institutions in Croatia was in danger of devastation motivating calls from international scholars for protection.[4]
