The Duchy of Fernán Núñez kept, until the municipal transfer of 1983, an unknown fund in his palace in Córdoba that is complementary to that deposited by the noble house in the Archivo Histórico de la Nobleza. Although the oldest documentation is from the 16th century, it was in the 18th century, pushed by the damage of the Lisbon earthquake and influenced by the ideals of the Enlightenment, when Carlos José Gutiérrez de los Ríos (VI count of Fernán Núñez, 1742-1795 ) composed a new archive, at the same time recovered part of its memory. An outstanding fund that brings together not only the history of the old estate and its village, but also a select newspaper archive, the result of the administration work.
