Manuscripts from the Regional Museum and Gallery in Most
Four volumes from the collections of the Regional Museum and Gallery in Most were digitised in 2023. The oldest of them (shelf mark 3/Ruk) is a set of sermons from the end of the 15th century. According to the focus of some of the texts, it is likely to have been written by Franciscans in Bohemia. The manuscript 25/Ruk was compiled in 1731 by Antonín Hirschmann, chaplain at the convent of the Order of St Mary Magdalene in Zahražany, for local purposes and contains texts for some ceremonies. From the last third of the 18th century, there is a German-language set of regulations for Saxon military exercises from 1766 and reports on exercises from 1752–1769 (shelf mark 120/Ruk). The latest book is a sample book containing drawings of toys made by Franz Köhler & Sohn from around 1870 (shelf mark 581/RK).
