The Duchess Anna Amalia Library in Weimar, Germany, is a renowned research library with a rich history that dates back to the 16th century. Named after Duchess Anna Amalia of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel, who transformed the library into a major cultural landmark in the 18th century, it houses an extensive collection of rare books, manuscripts, and musical scores. The library is particularly famous for its Rococo Hall, an architectural marvel that draws visitors from around the world. In 2004, it suffered a devastating fire, but extensive restoration efforts have since returned it to its former glory.
