    History

    Origin

    Teutonic Prussia?

    Provenance

    We don't know the name of the first owner of the host volume (information about him may have been on the now lost title page). The volume belonged to the University Library in Königsberg and then, in the yaers 1827-1944, to the Royal (then State) and University Library in Königsberg.
    Then, 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.

    Persons and Institutions 1. University Library in Königsberg; 2. Royal (since 1918: State) and University Library in Königsberg (1827-1944); 3. University Library in Toruń
