Biblioteca Guarneriana, Public library and industrial archaeology museum in San Daniele del Friuli, Italy.

The Biblioteca Guarneriana contains over 12,000 ancient books, including manuscripts written on vellum and parchment in its historical collection.

The library began in 1466 when Guarnerio d'Artegna donated 173 manuscript codes to the Church of San Michele for public access and study.

The collection features a 12th-century Byzantine bible with miniatures combining Western and Eastern artistic styles, plus an original Dante's Inferno manuscript.

Visitors can join guided tours every Saturday morning at 10:45 in Italian or English, or schedule private appointments to see the collections.

The library survived the Napoleonic period in 1797 when the librarian protected many codes from seizure by French commissioner Gaspare Monge.
