The municipal library of the Russian city of Vyborg (formerly Viipuri) was designed by Alvar Aalto from 1927 to 1935. Aalto received the commission after winning the architectural competition launched in 1927 for the building. The library, one of the most important works of his pre-war output, represents together with the Paimio Sanatorium, a cornerstone of his international fame. It is considered a masterpiece of the twentieth century architectural heritage. However, the history of the building has been tragic. The present restoration of the library, which began in 1991 as a joint proiect between Russian and Finnish restoration committees, has gained international interest.
