(Re) discovery of the week: Caoa, Conservators of Antiquities and Works of Art. What relationship with the archives? Well, in several departments, the director of the departmental archives or a person of this service performs this function. Many web pages on this subject are also hosted on sites in AD as Haute-Garonne, in the Yvelines or Val-de-Marne (non-exhaustive list of course).
For brevity, the Caoa were created in 1908 as part of the separation of Church and State. Their role is to work for the census, juridical protection, conservation and enhancement of heritage furniture still present in historical monuments (for details, a good presentation page their missions on the site AD Hautes-Alpes). It is a mission carried out in addition to a core business and not necessarily assigned to a conservative heritage. The situation varies greatly depending Caoa departments and according to the sensitivities of the Heritage Councils.
From what I understand, the Caoa are now in crisis because they lack recognition, are poorly compensated, and especially in a complex situation, as reported in this article 's 2006 Journal of the Arts.
Note the Caoa are organized within a national association. Their website is in process. For the centenary of the creation of Caoa the book was published I cones idols: a look at the subject Historic Monument (eds. Palouzié Hélène, 2008) that the Journal of Arts presents its number 297 (p . 16).
Somehow in all cases, an archivist, to maintain contact with the objects of art ...
