Lucas Archives

A landmark collection of materials from the cinematic worlds of George Lucas, including the Star Wars and Indiana Jones franchises.

About the Lucas Archives

The Lucas Museum is home to a comprehensive collection of props, artwork, and artifacts from two of the most beloved movie franchises in history—Star Wars and Indiana Jones. The archives were first established in 1983 at Skywalker Ranch in Marin County, California, as production wrapped on Star Wars: Episode VI – Return of the Jedi.

In 2013, this extraordinary collection was donated to become the foundation of the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art. Spanning more than four decades of filmmaking, the archives celebrate the creative vision of director and producer George Lucas, featuring materials from the first six Star Wars films, the first four Indiana Jones adventures, and other Lucasfilm productions, including Radioland Murders, Howard the Duck, Red Tails, and Willow.
