Captivating inside out

My new contract locaited me in Uppsala. Now this city have stunning arcitecture &&& is also filled with Swedish history! :D I find that when you grab your clicks, it is even better if there is a history behind them.
But i wish to add- A picture should speak with out using words...
Now lets get to this cuty i have to show you today :D
We are looking at Carolina Rediviva , which in Latin means "the resurrected Carolina" the buildinghouses Uppsala University Library.
Uppsala is a huge study city.
Most of Swedens higher learnings are done in this town.
The foundation of the building was laid on June 14, 1817 and started by King Karl XIV Johan.

There is a "subject library unit" within & which together with the Karin Boye library serves the humanities, theology and sociology teaching sectors. So it have sections with in the librery, as well as the "cultural heritage units", music and manuscript department, the older print department; and the map and picture department. It also substain the unit that runs the digital scientific archive DiVA. Which is the online medical researtch section, were my master-degree is held.

After World War II, collections grew rapidly, leading to the addition of glazed courtyards, designed by architect Peter Celsing.
Carolina Rediviva is one of seven libraries in Sweden that, for conservation reasons, receive so-called. compulsory copies of everything printed in Sweden

Carolina Rediviva symbolizes the dominance of academic Uppsala on the western side of the river. Together with the Castle and the Cathedral, the building forms a trinity that overlooks the entire city space and dominates the line of sight from most places in Uppsala.


The placement ontop of the Carolina hill is made with consideration. The fact that the university library is located on the crest is not only an expression of a lavishly large building placed centrally in the best place, but also that the university library should overlook the city to express authority and instill respect with the residents of Uppsala

The sepia tones of the university library is my favorite one of your photos! I like the vintage look of all the black and white images as well! @swedishdragon Have a great weekend!
