Livinus Gospels
The Carolingian Gospel of Livinus is an illuminated manuscript that was probably created around 800 in the Abbey of Saint-Amand and is today kept under the signature Ms. 13 (Inv.No. 741) in the treasure of St. Bavo's Cathedral in Ghent .
Belonging to the Ghent Cathedral Treasury is proven by an ownership entry from the 12th century. The manuscript is named after St. Livinus , who has been venerated in St. Bavo since the earliest times.
