Summary/Abstract: Wars leave very hard consequences in all domains of people’s lives. Wars destroy people, economy, infrastructure and cultural heritage etc. The archival material as a part of the cultural heritage can be protected from destruction during military operations, bombings and fires which can occur after bombing. It is very important to take all measures for the preventive protection of the archival material in case of war. Te experience from the war during the disintegration of the Yugoslav Federation has shown that such protection is essential. During the armed conflict which took place in the Western part of Macedonia in 2001., the State Archives of the Republic of Macedonia took appropriate action for the preventive protection of the archival material in the Departments of the State Archives which were in direct danger of destruction. These measures were taken in accordance with the Regulation for the special protection of the archival material during war and state of emergency, adopted by the Government of the Republic of Macedonia in 1998. The Regulation provides the protection of the archival material created by the state bodies, companies etc. during war and state of emergency.
