Ein geschichtsträchtiger Ort - Wiege der deutschen Demokratie. Der Plenarsaal, in dem es 1848 wohl doch hoch her ging, diskutiert und gestritten wurde, ist erstaunlich schlicht und einfach gehalten. Sehr interessant auch das Rundbild in der Mitte des Foyers. Seit 1950 wird hier zudem der Friedenspreis des deutschen Buchhandels verliehen, eine sehr hoch geschätzte Auszeichnung. Die Liste der namhaften Preisträger hängt ebenfalls im Foyer. Zudem sind Schautafeln zu den Ereignissen rund um die Paulskirche in den Fensternischen des Foyers zu finden. Der Eintritt ist frei.
