The entrance to Libreria Veronese |
On my trip to Bologna I came across this old bookshop just off Piazza Maggiore with the great Basilica di San Petronio. There was a very kind woman inside that showed me around and explained that the original shop was opened in 1885 and was used as an early library. Bologna, being the oldest university in the world, treasures institutions such as the Libreria Veronese.
