History
Teutonic Prussia
The host volume was written in the territory of Teutonic Prussia, most likely in Königsberg, possibly in the scriptorium of the Sambian bishops at the castle in Fischhausen near Königsberg, in the 60s of the 15th century and in the second decade of the 16th century. Here it was also binding, using parchment stripes with the commentary on the Symbol. After the secularization of the state of the Teutonic Order, probably around the middle of the 16th century, it was placed in the castle library in Königsberg.
In the years 1827-1944 it belonged 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 (among them host volume) 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.
