Description

Montreal’s Université de Montréal just unveiled a treasure trove of seven rare historical artifacts, including a 900-year-old manuscript fragment once bound into a later book—now a medieval writing goldmine. Alongside illuminated Books of Hours, an early printed book, and a stunning 19th-century anatomical atlas, these pieces offer hands-on access to history’s evolution, from Carolingian script to early printing. Researchers and students rejoice at having such rare originals right in Montreal, cutting travel and enhancing tactile learning. The library invites the public to explore these tangible links to the past on the first Tuesday of every month.
