The Vatican s Secret Archives Uncovering Documents That Will Shock You From "Unmasking the Vatican"

The archives are divided into two sections, the Vatican Apostolic Archive and the Vatican's Secret Archive. The Apostolic Archive houses documents from Pope Innocent VIII's papacy up to the 20th century, while the Secret Archive houses records from more recent years. Researchers can access the Apostolic Archive but not the Secret Archive. The Vatican's Secret Archives are a massive repository of secrets and revelations that contain records of scandals and explosive material. Nobody knows the actual size of the archives since they are so vast and unorganised.
