Abstract: Let $Sigma$ be a smooth Riemannian manifold, $GammasubsetSigma$ a smooth closed oriented submanifold of codimension higher than $2$ and $T$ an integral area-minimizing current in $Sigma$ which bounds $Gamma$. We prove that the set of regular points of $T$ at the boundary is dense in $Gamma$. Prior to our theorem the existence of any regular point was not known, except for some special choice of $Sigma$ and $Gamma$. As a corollary we answer to a question of Almgren about the connectivity of minimizers.
