Wolfsburg Municipal Library
Time: 1962
Place: Wolfsburg, Germany
Details: Modernist architects like Alvar Aalto put great emphasis on the comfort and usability of library spaces. The Municipal Library he built 1958–62 for the German city of Wolfsburg features a great central room for which he used a series of specially designed skylights to bring in natural light, even though all the walls are covered with books.

Best-effort ordering. Some events may appear out of order since many are only known to the year, but they are usually around the same period.
