Various books and beautiful collections of manuscripts, maps, and coins in a library with a museum and gallery in Paris.
Nearly 900 treasures (manuscripts, coins, maps and plans, prints, costumes...) from the collections of the kings of France in a remarkable museum in the heart of Paris, a reading room housed in the splendid oval gallery, a research library and a garden: such is the Richelieu site of what is commonly known as the BNF. A must-see is the Mazarin gallery, built by François Mansart and featuring ceilings painted by Romanelli.

The building is super beautiful and full of history. The reading rooms are quiet and perfect for getting some serious work done or just soaking in the book vibes.
