"Central Library" Top 5 Page for this destination Ulm Things to Do Tip by Nemorino

The new Central Library in Ulm was opened in May 2004. It is on the Marktplatz (Market Square) near the City Hall.

The facade is made almost entirely of double glass walls, and the roof is in the shape of a pyramid with a height of more than 36 meters. On the fifth floor there is a readers' cafeteria with views of the city roofs and the Ulm Minster.

The building is cooled in the summer and warmed in the winter by a modern fuel-saving ventilation system.
