Die Hungarica Sammlung der Franckeschen Stiftungen zu Halle

The diverse international contacts that August Hermann Francke (1663–1727) initiated from Halle are also reflected in the holdings of the archives and library of the Francke Foundations. In 2000, together with the Széchényi National Library in Budapest, the desire arose to review, catalogue and research the holdings relating to Hungary. Just three years later, the volume ›Die Hungarica Sammlung der Franckeschen Stiftungen zu Halle. Teil 1: Porträts‹ (The Hungarica Collection of the Francke Foundations in Halle. Part 1: Portraits) was published in the series Hallesche Quellenpublikationen und Repertorien (Halle Source Publications and Repertories). During further research into the holdings, the editors came across a rich treasure trove of historical maps and views, which is now available in a separate book illustrated with 104 colour plates and which illustrates the history of Hungary in its own unique way.

This book is published in German.
