Founded by Bishop Juan de Palafox y Mendoza, it is a bibliographical institution that takes the name of its founder who donated his private library of 6,000 volumes to the Tridentine seminaries in 1646, so that it could be consulted by all those who wanted to study. The Palafoxiana library was born under the motto of being a public library, which today, 361 years after its foundation, shows the vision of the universe from the 16th to the 19th centuries and the origins of Mexican culture.
