Ministry of Magic Archives

The Ministry of Magic Archives is a Ministry of Magic office encharged with preserving and documenting historical records, and with increasing public access to those documents.

The Archives keep secret records detailing a mass operation involving 167 Memory Charms and the largest ever mass Concealment Charm performed in Britain (the morning after these alleged crimes, the villagers of Hogsmeade found that they had a railway station with a gleaming scarlet steam engine, and the Muggle railway workers in Crewe spent the rest of the year with the unconfortable feeling they had mislaid something important). The Archives also had information on the accidents throughout the history of the Triwizard Tournament, and published a book on the subject, titled Triwizard Tragedies.
