San Lorenzo, 9, Firenze
The Library is open to the public in 1571, is one of the finest examples of the architecture of Michelangelo Buonarroti and shows a unique collection of books for philological and artistic merit. The environments of Michelangelo's monumental vestibule and reading room are no longer used as a library, but are open to visitors with a function in a museum. In the adjacent rooms of the late nineteenth century are often organized thematic exhibitions of ancient manuscripts and printed books.
