Biblioteca Marucelliana
Biblioteca Marucelliana, State public library and archive in Historic Centre of Florence, Italy.
The Biblioteca Marucelliana holds over one million volumes, including manuscripts, prints, drawings, and newspapers in a building on Via Camillo Cavour.
Francesco Marucelli established this library in 1752, initially containing 6000 manuscripts and later expanded through collections from suppressed Jesuit institutions in 1776.
