Humanist library, listed on Unesco's Memory of the World Register, with 6 permanent exhibition spaces.

Founded in 1452 and housed in the Corn Exchange since 1889, the Humanist Library has been listed on Unesco's Memory of the World Register since 2011 for the part of its collections bequeathed by the humanist Beatus Rhenanus (1485-1547). Placed under the aegis of this scholar, the museographical tour unveils unique collections in six permanent exhibition spaces, including around a hundred medieval manuscripts and over 1,600 printed works dating from the 15th and 16th centuries. The Treasury unveils the most precious works thanks to a brand-new digital device!

C'était ma première visite à Celesta, par laquelle j'étais toujours passé. Comme je faisais surtout de la randonnée, je n'ai pas eu le temps de prendre le train au retour et la bibliothèque était assez dégradée...

Si l'on aime découvrir les beaux objets, la littérature, le passé, la beauté des lieux, le calme alors la bibliothèque humaniste est faite pour vous. Un grand merci à la ville de Sélestat pour ce magnifique édifice

Lieu intéressant et paisible.

Vue d'ensemble très bien présentée des humanistes aux 14 et 15 siècles et de la façon dont ils ont contribué à forcer le clergé à revenir au vrai christianisme.

Établissement extraordinairement informatif, non seulement en raison du patrimoine culturel mondial, mais aussi de la conception architecturale.
