One of the many locations that housed the collections of the Cinémathèque suisse until the late 1980s was the Maupas depository, established in 1969 and mainly used for storing photos and posters conserved by the Cinémathèque suisse. The photo library then moved to Penthaz at the same time as the rest of the Cinémathèque suisse’s Non-Film archives in the late 1980s.
