Princess Grace Irish Library – A Cultural Tribute to Irish Heritage
The Princess Grace Irish Library in Monaco is a literary and cultural haven dedicated to the rich heritage of Ireland. Founded in 1984 by Prince Rainier III in honor of Princess Grace of Monaco, who had deep Irish roots, the library houses an extensive collection of Irish literature, poetry, music, and historical documents.
Located in a charming Belle Époque building, the library offers visitors a unique opportunity to explore rare books, first editions, and manuscripts from some of Ireland’s greatest writers, including James Joyce, W.B. Yeats, Samuel Beckett, and Seamus Heaney. It serves as an important cultural and research center, promoting Irish literature, arts, and history through lectures, literary events, exhibitions, and musical performances.
The Princess Grace Irish Library is more than just a library—it is a celebration of the deep connection between Monaco and Ireland, reflecting Princess Grace’s love for literature and her Irish ancestry. It welcomes researchers, students, and visitors who wish to delve into Irish culture in an intimate and inspiring setting.
