Rome is a city perfect for history buffs, be it in terms of architectural beauty, historical significance and plenty of other things. The Vatican Library in Rome is home to 75000 manuscripts and approximately 1.1 million printed books. If you are a history buff and culture attracts you, then you can admire the Library on your trip to Europe.
The Vatican Apostolic Library is known for having a modest collection of manuscripts and other artefacts during that time. It stands as proof for centuries of intellectual pursuit.
The Vatican Library Secrets linger in the hallways, where you can find plenty of history buffs checking out the ancient collections.
Ever heard of the Vatican Secret Archives? The word secret comes from the Latin word Archivium Secretum Vaticanum, which translates to Secret Archives by the people, and it is due to this reason that the Vatican Library’s name changed into the Vatican Apostolic Archive by Pope Francis.
The Vatican Archives have a lot of medieval material dating back to the 8th Century, however, it's quite fragmented and rare. The Vatican Library Collection consists of books of letters and bureaucratic records.
