Dissolution of monasteries in Kingdom of Poland based on the impe-rial order of October 27 (November 8) 1864 resulted in the closure of 190 monasteries. The documentation created at that time, related to ensuring the continued exist-ence of monks and nuns, the upkeep of buildings and equipment, book collections and other assets taken over, after completion of the activities, was transferred to the regional archives and the capital Treasury Archives and Archives of Historical Records.
