Provenance

The host volume belonged to Urban Stürmer (Sturmius), about 1523-1565 (entry on the front pastedown: Urbanus Stormius M.[ariaeburgensis]), german poet, professor of the University of Königsberg (1555), conductor and cantor of the prince's Albrecht Hohenzollern chape (see also Ob.6.II.376, 684, 687, 2054-2055, 4680, 4682, Pol.6.II.256). He probably donated his book collection to the university library, which in 1810 was joined with the castle library, thus creating the royal and university library in Königsberg (1827-1944).

We dont't know exactly when and where the volume (printed in 1557) was covered with a parchment leaf, containing fragment of Sententiae by Petrus Lombardus. We can assume that it happened on the initiative of Stürmer.

It belonged to the library in Królewiec until 1944. As a result of the evacuation of the most valuable collections of the library and the change of state borders after the second world war, the evacuated books found themselves in the territory of the Polish state. In July 1946, by the decision of the Ministry of Education, they were transferred to the University Library in Toruń.
