12 full pictures from the hall of the city library
When the Lübeck city library was made accessible to the general public in 1619 in the dormitory of the former Katharinenkloster, which was provided with oak shelves, the room now known as the Scharbausaal or library founding hall was given the 61 carved coats of arms and name inscriptions from the council, clergy and school in the course of the 17th century a series of full-length portraits of the mayors, councilors, superintendents and city physicians who have contributed to the library. During the neo-Gothic redesign of the town hall, twelve of them came to the town hall around 1890.
