Kolekce relací z inspekcí velkovévody Petra Leopolda po Toskánském velkovévodství z let 1765–1790 a jejich osudové cesty z Florencie do Čech
A Collection of the Inspection Reports of Grand Duke Peter Leopold in the Duchy of Tuscany from 1765–1790 and Their Fateful Journey from Florence to Bohemia

Summary/Abstract: The article for an almanac published for the jubilee of Alena Pazderová pursued the formation of the fonds of Peter Leopold, Grand Duke of Tuscany, today constituting the first collection of the complex fonds of the Family Archives of the Tuscany Habsburgs that comprises sixty-one volumes of various types of documents from 1740–1790. After the separation of documents in 1859–1860, Leopold’s reports and manuscripts were placed in Villa Montughi in Florence, Tuscany. The study identified the individual volumes and monitored their complex journey, especially the individual stages of their long-lasting transport over nearly one century from Tuscany via Salzburg to Bohemia and their eventual placement in the Prague National Archives depository in 1996. Furthermore, the study describes an interest of the Italian party to surrender the Tuscany family archives to Italy; it ended by concluding a cultural agreement that enabled a mutual exchange of archivists, the study of the Family Archives of the Tuscany Habsburgs (RAT), and provided Czech researchers with a list of Bohemica documents in which Dr Alena Pazderová played a significant role.
