Introduction

This library, built in the Victorian Gothic style, is one of the most outstanding buildings in the city. It was built in memory of Mr. Rieland's wife, who had unique vision for it. In 2005, the library underwent a major renovation, adding a tourist center. This means that tourists now have the opportunity to enjoy its beautiful reading room and collection of early printed books.
