Review:
The George Peabody Library is located on East Mount Vernon Place on the Peabody Institute campus. It is John Hopkins University’s 19th century research library, and it is open to the general public. The library’s collection contains 300,000 books, most of which are from the 19th century and some of which are early printed books.
Completed in 1878, the building has become well known for its beautiful and ornately decorated interior; the ceiling of the atrium soars 61 feet above the black and white marble floor. Because of its refined beauty, the library is a popular venue for weddings and other special events. It is open from Tuesday to Friday.
17 East Mount Vernon Place, Baltimore, MD, 410-234-4943
