- Abstract
The constitutional court is the highest court for the protection of constitutionality, legality, human rights and fundamental freedoms. In its 30 years of operation, it has judged on matters related to archival records three times. Due to its high reputation and power, its judgements have a powerful effect on the comprehension of the role of the public archival service and archival records. The first such judgement was passed in 2011, the second in 2014 and the third in 2017. All of them were created on the basis which recognizes public archival institutions, including the central state archives, merely as protectors of the cultural heritage whose main task is to put this heritage to use for the public. Sadly, the role of archives as protectors of human rights and freedoms was dangerously placed in the background.
