Catalogues

Catalogue of the Rosenberg Library

(1602–1608, with additions up to 1612), Stockholm, Kungliga biblioteket, MS U 378

The catalogue was compiled under the supervision of the librarian Václav Březan at the Rosenberg court in Třeboň. It is divided into four parts and records approximately 10,000 manuscripts and printed books. It constitutes a unique source for reconstructing the form and scope of the Rosenberg Library at the time of the death of Petr Vok of Rosenberg (1612).
