London Research Libraries Trainee Blog: Archives in Köln

I don't know if this shocking incident has appeared on English news: The building of the city archives of Köln / Cologne has collapsed yesterday with probably most of the 18 kilometers of material that has been stored there destroyed. They assume that the cause for the collapse was the construction of an underground line which takes place nearby.

You can read an English article about it on Spiegel international:
