Documents, land register, register of income and expenditure of Fulnek

At the beginning of 2019, we created three facsimiles of documents for the town of Fulnek. All three documents are related to the former Augustinian monastery and the originals are stored in the Land Archive in Opava. We also created a model of the land register and the register of income and expenditure. The originals are stored in the State District Archive in Nový Jičín. Take a look at the photo gallery and see how successful we were.
