Hidden College Libraries That Belong in a Fairytale

10. The Maughan Library – King’s College London, England

A hidden jewel in the heart of London, the Maughan Library is an awe-inspiring Gothic masterpiece that houses some of the rarest books in academia. With its cavernous reading rooms, spiral staircases, and cathedral-like ambiance, the library feels like it was plucked from the pages of a classic novel. The most magical part of the library is its Round Reading Room, which echoes the fabled reading spaces of legendary wizards and scholars. Few places capture the spirit of literary enchantment quite like this one.
