    History

    Origin

    Teutonic Prussia

    Provenance

    The manuscript was probably the property of the Teutonic Order or another order in the area of Teutonic Prussia.

    The host volume belonged first to the castle library in Königsberg and 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. Private library of Albrecht Hohenzollern, duke of Prussia (1525-1568) in Königsberg; 2. Prince Albrecht's Hohenzollern castle library in Königsberg; 3. Royal (since 1918: State) and University Library in Königsberg; 4. University Library in Toruń
