Bibliothèque Mazarine

23 quai de Conti 75006 Paris

Paris

Île-de-France

Today integrated into the Palais de l'Institut, the Bibliothèque Mazarine is the oldest public library in France and one of the richest. Originally the personal library of Cardinal Mazarin (1602-1661), it was opened to the public in 1643\. To ensure its survival, Mazarin decided to join it to the Collège des Quatre-Nations, which he founded shortly before his death. The construction of the college, on the plans of the architect Louis Le Vau, bordering the Latin Quarter and facing the Louvre, lasted about twenty years (1662-1682). The left wing was reserved for the library. The Mazarine Library has not ceased to develop since then; it remains today, more than three hundred and fifty years after its foundation, a library of study and research open to all, as well as a real museum of the book. Its reading room perpetuates the unique decor of a large library of the seventeenth century.
