Lonely Planet review for Herzogin Anna Amalia Bibliothek

The phoenixlike rebirth of Anna Amalia's precious library following a 2004 fire is nothing short of a miracle. These days, the magnificent Rokokosaal (Rococo Hall) is again crammed with 40,000 tomes once used for research purposes by Goethe, Schiller and other Weimar hotshots. Scholars may still borrow the books; for the rest of us, the fine busts and paintings of these men are just as interesting. Entry is by timed ticket and capped at 250 people per day, so book in advance or start queuing before the ticket office opens at 9.30am.
