Sir D.B. Jayatilaka Memorial Dharmaraja College Archives, Kandy

Preserving the History, Values and Traditions of the Dharmaraja College

ARCHIVESBUILDING.JPG
  • Dharmaraja College Archives was established in 2002 with the guidance of the National Archives.
  • The Archives collect the documents of Dharmaraja to preserve them for posterity.
  • The Archives is the official custodian of the documents of the college.
  • Collecting more than 130 years of Dharmaraja history and maintaining it is an enormous task.
  • Therefore Dharmaraja College Archives have started this website as a private Wikipedia so that all Rajans can collaboratively complete relevant pages of the College's History. Please find/make the relevant pages for you and update them.



  • Please Note: We are improving this site continuously as the data collected from 2002 is to be entered and also new data is being collected. Therefore some of the pages could be empty.
  • If you wish to contribute or have comments, please get in touch with the President, Dharmaraja College Archives Foundation through archives.dharmaraja@gmail.com
