A very small library, but certainly of more historical than practical value. Interesting to visit if you like the old-fashioned style of the upper town.

Beautiful spot with a restaurant and a great view.

Get ready for the many fun steps....

Piazza Vecchia, the heart of Upper Bergamo

From the church, going down the path in a very short time you reach the Astino valley

The "Angelo Mai" Civic Library is located in the Palazzo Nuovo, at Piazza Vecchia 15 in Bergamo. The Palazzo Nuovo, whose construction began in the early 17th century and was designed by Vincenzo Scamozzi, housed the offices and offices of the Municipality of Bergamo for nearly three centuries. Between the 19th and 20th centuries, it was first home to the Royal Vittorio Emanuele II Technical Institute, and then to the Museum of Natural Sciences. The Library has been housed there since 1928, having moved from the Palazzo Vecchio or Palazzo della Ragione, which is located on the same square and faces the Palazzo Nuovo. The façade of the Palazzo Nuovo was completed in 1928 by architect Ernesto Pirovano, who incorporated Scamozzi's original design into his work.

One of the many beautiful churches you come across along the way

I once saw a James in front of the door but he wasn't the saint...
