📚Must-See for History Buffs, Artists, and Bibliophiles📚 It's more than just a library! The Redwood Library contains historical artifacts (rotating displays), artwork (some originals!), sculpture, and, of course, thousands of books (many of which are several hundred years old). It's free to enter and browse (there are bathrooms as well!). The library staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about their work. Please support this invaluable establishment with your patronage and visit!

What a beautiful place to visit. Beautiful setting, full of history. The first library in America, is an art gallery and an architectural marvel.

Love that this private library is free to visit for the public (not all rooms, but the most historic ones are accessible, and the temporary gallery exhibit is too). Lots of history in this building, and there's a room of strange books that you can buy for $1 each. Very kind lady at the front desk was happy to tell us all about the library and...
