Carnegie Library of Reims, Art Deco library in Reims, France
The Carnegie Library spans five levels with a semi-circular arrangement of book stacks, containing a collection of 400,000 books and ancient manuscripts.
The Carnegie Endowment for International Peace funded the library with 200,000 dollars after German forces destroyed the original building during World War I.
The library holds important collections of ancient manuscripts, crime novels, and documents relating to the Dreyfus Affair for research and preservation.
Located at 2 Place Carnegie in Reims, the library welcomes visitors during regular hours and maintains specialized sections for historical document consultation.
The entrance hall features a central fountain beneath a hanging lantern, while the reading room displays zenith stained glass windows by Jacques Gruber.
