The National Archives of Norway in Kristiansand (Norwegian: Nasjonalarkivet i Kristiansand) is a regional state archive situated in Kristiansand, Norway. Part of the National Archives of Norway, it is responsible for archiving documents from state institutions in the counties of Aust-Agder and Vest-Agder. The collection includes ten shelf-kilometers of material from the 16th century to the 1990s. The archives have been at their current site since 1997, premises which are shared with the Intermunicipal Archives of Vest-Agder.[1] The archives were established in 1934, taking over documents covering Agder from the Regional State Archives in Oslo.[2] On January 1 2026, the name was changed from the Regional State Archives in Kristiansand to the National Archives of Norway in Kristiansand.[3]
