DEUTSCHEN NATIONALBIBLIOTHEK - GERMAN NATIONAL LIBRARY
Go there and contact
Built in 1912 in a monumental and national style, the German National Library was the result of a unique project: gather in a huge archive all German publications. As closely linked to the quasi-monopoly monopoly of the publishing and printing industry, she played this role unchallenged until the war. Then the separation of the two Germans lives in their ego ego, the Deutsche Bibliothek in Frankfurt, while the GDR was trying to archivisme in Leipzig. In 1990, the two institutions were collected in one institution, Deutsche Nationalbibliothek. Today, Deutsche Bücherei remains an incredible archive source. Its rooms are impressive. The Bücherei has an extension of the communist era, the Magazinturm, a blind building where the precious documents are preserved, completely gt in 2011 together with the addition of a new wing of very contemporary architecture, all green and metal, with a rounded side and a flat roof. The whole is visually out of standard!
The Buchmuseum, housed in the German library since 1950, is the oldest book museum in the world; It was founded in 1884 as a museum of book activity in Leipzig. It is devoted, based on numerous historical documents and objects, to the book as a medium, a vector of culture and civilisation since ancient Mesopotamia. Reflections on the book, its evolution, presentation of techniques, in full revolutions for a century, are the foundations of this exciting and very legitimate museum, unfortunately only in German.
