Bibelmuseum, Munster

Münster University's Bible Museum is located in the heart of the old city and tells the story of the Bible. The museum features original handwritten samples, as well as contemporary editions. The collection covers the main parts of the Greek New Testament, both manuscripts and printed samples, followed by exhibition of the Latin Bible, German translation of Martin Luther's works and other modern Bible translations. The museum also features biblical illustrations and full-scale replicas from the Gutenberg press. In April 2010, Bibelmuseum received Germany's largest private collection, which contained 379 bibles in Latin, 200 Greek and 16 multilingual bibles from the 16th to 18th century.
