History

Remarks

The fragments were used for bookbinding in the Benedictine monastery of Zweifalten. Sándor Vigyázó bought the host volume of the fragments from the bookseller Franz Roracher in 1901. Ferenc Vigyázó, Sándor Vigyázó’s son bequeathed his library to the Library of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences in 1928. His collection contained his father’s books as well. The fragments were detached from the host volume during the restoration of the incunabel and were placed into the Fragment Collection in the 20th century.
