Last Saturday, June 8, in the context of the International Archives Week, from Wikisphere and in coordination with the Subdirectorate-General for State Archives (@archivosest) of the Ministry of Culture of the Government of Spain (@culturagob) we dedicate a session in the Historical Archive of the Nobility, in Toledo, to make visible in Wikipedia a noble women through the creation of different articles.

For this activity we use the names of some nobles present in the exhibition catalogue Woman, Nobility and Power. This exhibition offered a detailed view of outstanding women in the history of Spain who, overcoming the traditional roles of their gender, exercised power and influence in the politics and culture of their time.
