Tweebronnen Library Leuven

Tweebronnen Library is the main library of Leuven and is housed in a remarkable building designed by the modernist architect Henry Van de Velde. Originally built as a technical school in the 1930s, it was converted in 2002 into a contemporary library and archive building. The collection includes books, films, music, newspapers, and an extensive youth literature section.

The library is well accessible for wheelchair users. The main entrance on the Diestsestraat is step-free via a ramp. A lift connects the three library floors and an adapted toilet is available on the ground floor. The corridors between the shelves and the study tables are spaciously dimensioned. At the reception you can ask for assistance or an adapted seat.

Tweebronnen is located in the heart of Leuven, close to the Grote Markt and the City Hall. Disabled parking spaces can be found in the underground Ladeuze car park within walking distance. Registering is free for under-18s and a favourable rate applies for visitors with a disability. Lectures and workshops are regularly organised in the adapted versatile hall.
