Lorcher choir books
The Lorch Choir Books are three magnificent liturgical manuscripts from the Benedictine monastery of Lorch , which were created between 1510 and 1512 and are now stored in the Württemberg State Library in Stuttgart under the shelfmarks Cod. Mus. I 2 ° 63-65.
The client was Abbot Sebastian Sitterich. The sovereign, Duke Ulrich von Württemberg , supported the elaborate writing work as the main benefactor.
