The archive is the primary archival institution for municipal and local histories of Stara Pazova, Inđija, Irig, Šid, Ruma, Pećinci and Sremska Mitrovica.[1] One of the most important archival materials preserved by the institution are church registers from 1732 to 1900, which include Roman Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, Greek Catholic, and Jewish records from the region.[1] Within its territorial jurisdiction, the archive conducts professional field supervision over 920 active registries (government bodies, local self-government bodies, institutions, cooperatives, and enterprises) which contain tens of thousands of linear meters of registry materials.[3]
The archive is housed in a building constructed around 1700, which served as the headquarters of the 9th Border Regiment of the Petrovaradin Regiment of the Slavonian Military Frontier.[1] The building is legally protected as a cultural monument and has been fully adapted for the needs of the archive through multiple renovations.[3] Besides the central building, the archive uses two additional facilities for storage depots.[3]
