Throughout the years, many respected rabbonim and other famous personalities visited the Rebbe’s library in Crown Heights. At the library, they were treated by the head librarian Rabbi Sholom Dovber Levin who would show them around and explain the unique items on display at the time.
This collection of photos, shows various rabbonim and personalities on their tour of the library. Some even got to explore the locked part of the library which holds precious seforim and manuscripts.
Special thanks to chief librarian Rabbi Levin for sharing these photos with us.
