A momentous work: Only 10 copies of this early edition of the Luther Bible from 1535 were printed on parchment; one of them is now housed at the DHM.

What far-reaching, including political, consequences did this Bible have for German history in general and its former owner in particular—and what significance does it hold for the museum’s library today?

With Matthias Miller, Head of the Library and the Manuscripts Collection – Rare and Valuable Prints, and Stefan Wild, local historian and member of the Ortenburg municipal councilObject in FocusWhat stories do the objects in the exhibition “Objects. History. Stories. A Look at the Collection” tell—about themselves, their era, and our collection?

On four dates, one of the objects will be highlighted and its traces traced. Join us!
