It is probably the most beautiful library in the city – the law library in the New Town Hall impresses with its high walls of books, the wrought-iron spiral staircases and the Art Nouveau gallery. The reading room was founded in 1843 and still serves as a retreat for all those interested in law to read and study. Lectures, discussions and readings also take place here from time to time.
You could easily think that a few scenes for the “Harry Potter“ films were shot in this magical place, but the library has served as a backdrop for other stories - your guide, who will accompany you, will certainly know which ones they are.
