For the past years Gasan Mamo embarked on a long-term project to restore several volumes of deeds and documents at the Notarial Archives in St Christopher Street, Valletta.

As part of the project, the company has been organising free tours of the archives for its clients, during which guests are given valuable information about the history and contents of the archives dating back to the medieval period. The earliest volume dates back to 1467.

The archives feature a display of original documents which, until now, have been inaccessible to the public due to lack of awareness about this precious patrimony, often referred to as ‘the mother of all archives’ and considered by historians to be a world heritage due to the international character of its contents.

The documents are not only central to Maltese history, but are a treasure for Mediterranean and European history.

“Gasan Mamo are proud to support the Notarial Archives. Moreover, these tours form part of our sense of responsibility towards the Maltese community and environment,” said managing director Julian Mamo.
