Over 800 historical Nepali documents, including Malla-era palm-leaf manuscripts and Rana-period state records, have been formally repatriated to Nepal’s National Archives after being preserved at Heidelberg University. This collection, once part of a private German estate, serves as a significant recovery of the nation's cultural heritage and provides valuable resources for researchers studying Nepal's political and legal history.
