Bibliothèque Méjanes-Allumettes, Aix-en-Provence, France.

The public library network in Aix was founded thanks to the bequest of Marquis de Méjanes in 1786, and carries his name to this day. Since 1989, its main location is in a former safety match factory.

It is now undergoing extensive renovation and is slated to reopen later this year.

It's a beautiful library, full of light, and associated with great memories for me.
