Planning a Visit
The Thesaurus Library and Archive are open year-round for scholars to consult in person. To arrange a visit please write us with information about your dates and research plans. Typically the library is accessible weekdays from 9:00am until 5:00pm (4:00pm on Friday), excluding public holidays, as long as supervision is available. Lockable desks are available on request for longer visits. The Bavarian Academy also houses the German Mittellateinisches Wörterbuch, with an extensive library of medieval texts, and is walking distance from the Bayerische Staatsbibliothek as well as the the Institut für Klassische Philologie at Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität and the Kommission für Alte Geschichte und Epigraphik at the Deutsches Archäologisches Institut.
