MoreThis century-old Italianate structure of bronze doors and grand marble staircases, Boston Public Library was the first free municipal library in the nation. The library's first building on Mason Street was a former schoolhouse, which opened in 1854. Having received an authorized decision, the library's then commissioners located a new building for the library on Boylston Street. Thus, the Copley Square location became home to the library in 1895. Expanding the Copley Square location in 1972, the Johnson building was constructed adjoining the McKim building. In this National Historic Landmark, you can find collections of maps and prints, rare books and manuscripts, and fine mural series. The Boston Public Library offers daily tours highlighting famed central library buildings and art works by some prolific artists from the bygone era. Less

  An absolutely beautiful building not to be missed. Tried to go on Memorial Day but it was closed. Luckily we had some spare time on the day we flew home so managed to fit it in. It is a must see when... More

  What a fantastic surprise while visiting Boston. In particular, we loved the interior garden with the fountain. Such a peaceful space within such a busy city. More
