Historia Aperta is an open-access academic peer reviewed journal focused on the history of Czech lands and (Central) European region.

It is published twice a year by the University of Hradec Králové in both online and print versions. Prior to 2022, this journal appeared under the title Východočeské listy historické. While highly respected in Czech academic circles since its founding in 1996, the editorial board changed the periodical’s name to Historia Aperta to reflect their commitment to providing an open international forum for the global community of historians. The journal publishes expert and interdisciplinary papers, particularly those related to Digital Humanities, with a mission to present scientific articles, primary sources (material articles), reviews, and news concerning the historical discipline. Besides Czech, the journal accepts articles in English, German, Polish and Slovak. The ethics statement of the journal is based on the Code of Conduct guidelines of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE). All journal papers are published under the terms of Creative Common License and transparent rules for the peer review procedure.
