Bibliothèque de l'Arsenal

The Bibliothèque de l'Arsenal in Paris has been part of the Bibliothèque nationale de France since 1934.

The collections of the library originated with the private library of Marc-René, 3rd marquis d'Argenson , installed in 1757 in the residence of the Grand Master of the Artillery, at the heart of the ancient Arsenal of Paris. The Arsenal itself was founded by King François I in the 16th century, later rebuilt by Sully, and expanded by the architect Germain Boffrand in the 18th century. Paulmy had assembled a magnificent collection, particularly rich in medieval manuscripts and prints. In 1786 he also acquired the collection of the duc de la Vallière, but then sold the entire library to the comte d'Artois.
