Communications Minister Visits The National Archives Of Trinidad and Tobago



The Minister of Communications continues his tour of facilities and offices under his purview with a quick stop at the national archives of Trinidad and Tobago.

Minister Symon de Nobriga visited the National Archives located at St Vincent Street, Port of Spain, a building that is considered by some to be a treasure-house of our country’s heritage.

It serves as a custodian of Trinidad and Tobago’s history. Its main function is to acquire, preserve and make accessible thousands of records, of various formats, to the public.

These include government records, immigration records, photographs, books, maps and more.

Many of these records are exceptional in the way they reveal our heritage and enable us as a nation to have a better understanding of Trinidad and Tobago and our ancestors.

Although the national archives is not open to the public at this time due to COVID-19 restrictions, anyone who needs to access their services can E-MAIL: enquiries@archives.gov.tt
