- Biblioteca Palafoxiana - On September 5, 1646, Bishop Palafox y Mendoza donated his personal library, composed of five thousand volumes, to the seminarians of the Tridentine colleges, ordering that it could be consulted by anyone who wanted to read or study, for which it is considered the first public library in the Americas.
Since then, it was established in the former College of San Juan, in the heart of the city of Puebla.
Named in 1981, Historical Monument of Mexico for its beautiful emblem of the baroque Novohispano emblem; and in 2005, included by UNESCO as part of the Memory of the World program for its bibliographic collection of old collections; the Palafoxiana Library is today a museum of books and continues its work as a universal library. In addition, it has a Play Room to disseminate librarian arts among children.
