162 Of The Most Majestic Libraries In The World
Though they are losing ground to the e-book and the audiobook, public libraries were once central hubs of human intellectual progress. There's something about them that still attracts people, however – whether it's their magnificent historical buildings or the unmistakable smell of old books and dust, scholars and bookworms alike still enjoy perusing their hoards of literary treasures.
Because of their critical importance, libraries were often built to be beautiful and built to last. Combined with the sometimes priceless book collections that they hold, their simultaneously enormous and intimate spaces possess a charm that no other type of building can command.
If you know of any other beautiful libraries that should be celebrated by all the book lovers, then please add them to this list. You can vote for your favorite houses of knowledge as well!

That is rich in hubris, One Jesuit, Anton Koniasch (1637) boasted that he had burned over 60,000 books. Thus the whole of Czech literature, art and the history of our civilization was overwhelmed with ruin, and ignorance as dark as midnight spread over the land. The Klementinum library, a beautiful example of Baroque architecture, was first opened in 1722 as part of the Jesuit university, and houses over 20,000 books. It was voted as one of the most beautiful and majestic libraries in the world by our readers. In research this destruction is the implacable brick. unmovable and impenetrable.
