Ventspils Main Library is located in the heart of the old town near Snt. Nicolai church. The library is situated in this place since 1937 when the Town Council bought an 18th century one-storey brick house at Akmeņu Street 2. Later the building was extended by an outhouse built in 1908 and several reconstructions were realized until 1999, when the competition for the radical extension of existing library building was held.
