Codex Gigas

Picture
Codex Gigas, the world's largest existing medieval manuscript, weighing 75 kilograms (165 pounds), was created in the early 13th century in a Benedictine monastery in Bohemia (in the modern Czech Republic). In 1648, during the Thirty Years’ War, the Swedish army took the codex as spoils of war. It is now in the National Library of Sweden.
