Husserl Archives

The Husserl Archives in Louvain-la-Neuve

In a " dedicated " part of the CEP library are the " Husserl Archives " from the Catholic University of Louvain-la-Neuve. These archives contain a copy of most of the original Husserl manuscripts kept at the Husserl Archief te Leuven, together with manual documents for specific research purposes. For the most up-to-date information, however, please refer to the catalogue available on the Husserl Archive website of the KU Leuven.

In order to consult the documents stored in the CEP library, please contact beforehand an academic member of the centre.
