There is a sign saying that visitors with a museum ticket can enter the reading room but I have a valid ticket and the staff won’t let me in. The old woman at the front desk is extremely rude and basically shouting at me, despite the tranquil library atmosphere. I love visiting different historic libraries when I travel so it’s very disappointing to have paid for the full Royal Palaces experience and then to be denied access to parts of the complex that are clearly open to other people who the staff seem to like more than tourists.

Lovely and historic library which is UNESCO registered. Located in the royale Palace ! The library contained lot of masterpieces such as Leonard de Vinci portrait! The interior of library is beautiful ! The visit is short but worth it

I've visited twice. The first visit was great, we saw the Leonardo exhibition, the people checking the tickets were very nice. The second time, the lady at the entrance was extremely rude to everyone who entered, made the visit quite unpleasant, and even forcefully shoved us to get out of there quicker.

They have an exhibition of Leonard da Vinci drawings which was incredible. An original self portrait in ink and eight separate illustrations of other drawings. Excellent. We visited at 09:00. When it opened and were more or less alone for the entire time we were there

Dive into a different epoch with the royal library as backdrop. What a wonderful place to be in and hearing every single footstep on the wooden floors. We were very lucky and only a handful of people were also visiting the Leonardo exhibition and goosebump moments seeing his sketches and most famously, his self-portrait! Another goosebump moment for me was the world map sketched by Amerigo Vespucci's nephew when the new world was discovered and named after him “America!” Absolutely loved also the books that detailed Leonardo's career and fello intellectuals. Some of these books contained his annotations. Not to miss.
