Raczyński Library

The façade of the Library

The Raczyński Library was founded by Edward Raczyński (1786–1845) in Poznań. The library's building was erected in 1822–1828 with the financial support of Edward Raczyński Foundation. The structure of a classical building features a colonnade reminiscent of the eastern façade of the Louvre.
