Die Herzogin Anna Amalia Bibliothek is located in the centre of Weimar on the Platz der Demokratie and is on the UNESCO list of World Heritage. Due to actual Covid-19 measures only a limited number of visitors are allowed. We arrived early and already a pretty long queue had formed, so we had to wait about one hour to get inside. Only part of the library is accessable and it was only possible to admire the beautiful Rococo Hall from the first floor, not from the galleries. Unfortunately, part of the collections was lost in 2004 due to a devastating fire. The library and especially the Rococo Hall is impressive and a must-see in Weimar.
