Library of the abbey of the city Melk, wich was founded in the year 1089. Lots of those books must be hand written i guess. Previous postings from this abby are here: 1,2,3,4,5,6.
What a treasure trove that is! I would love to know what kind of books there are there. But wow, the building is magical. I like the way you captured the light coming in. So nice. Verena
Very nice Library and photo Hans! I would have loved to work on something like this back in the day! I was a finish carpenter for half of my experience and was thrilled to do this kind of stuff. Never did a library though. Thank you for the photo!
