Altre informazioniIn 1765 Duke Carl Eugen of Württemberg founded the first public library in Ludwigsburg. In 1777 it was transferred to Stuttgart. In 1803, as a result of secularization, there was a large increase in holdings resulting from the dissolution of the monastic libraries, mainly those of Upper Swabia. In 1883 the library received a prestigious new building at today’s Konrad-Adenauer Strasse.
On the night of 12./13. September 1944 the State Library was bombed, resulting in the destruction of half a million books. In 1946 the "Württembergische Bibliotheksgesellschaft" (Friends of Württemberg State Library) was founded, which has greatly aided collection development in a valuable and effective manner. In 1970 the WLB moved to its new building in the old location at Konrad-Adenauer-Strasse. (From the library's web site: http://www.wlb-stuttgart.de/en/the-wlb/about-us/library-profile/ )
