The document archive of the Feast Association of Plaça Nova – Feast Committee of Sant Roc (AFPN Archive), after several traumatic circumstances that the neighborhood of the Cathedral has suffered over the last eighty years and its many years without a stable location of the entity, is in the process of classification and documentation. The material deposited and already classified in the site of the association in La Casa dels Entremesos, collects different historical and administrative documents, designs, original drawings, photographs, press clippings, magazines, posters and programs, books, sound and audiovisual recordings, among others, which have been stored for thirty years in various sites of the Association, in homes of former members of the Feast Committee and other materials donated by neighbors and former neighbors. The Archive Committee of the AFPN, besides taking care of the process of documentation, classification and archiving of the material that is deposited, is immersed in the process of researching, locating and collecting the rest of the historic archive of the organization that is still dispersed, missing or placed in other archives and without a clear reference.

Currently the document archive of the Feast Association of Plaça Nova – Feast Committee of Sant Roc (AFPN Archive), located in La Casa dels Entremesos, contains the documentation of the organization of the Feast of Sant Roc of Barcelona at plaça Nova, the oldest in the city, and documentation about this and about various sections and groups of popular culture that form part of the Association.
