The most beautiful libraries

You don't have to be a university student to visit the capital's most beautiful libraries. Loaded with knowledge, these quiet places of learning can also be visited like museums. They're sure to delight literature fans and architecture buffs alike!

Of course, there's the famous BNF Richelieu and its oval room, a treasure of the 2nd arrondissement, a temple of silence and guardian of the history of kings since 1721.

If you can't get enough of playing student, move on to Mazarine's for its beauty, Mines for its hidden side and Sainte-Geneviève, even if you've seen it in the movies, normally.

Makes you want to go back to school, doesn't it?
