Metadata for 22 objects from a Franciscan monastery in Güssing, fifty miles east of Graz, have been added to vHMML Reading Room. Founded in the mid-17th century by Count Adam Batthyány, the monastery’s twenty-two codices were both photographed and catalogued by HMML. These codices come from the Batthyány library and be traced back to the 15th century collection of Count Balthasar, a contemporary of King Matthias Corvinus of Hungary. Among the codices are two Breviaries from Transylvania. View an object here: View now
