Liturgical manuscripts

Liturgical manuscripts are handwritten books or documents containing texts used during religious ceremonies and worship services. Often created by monks or scribes in medieval times, they include prayers, scripture, hymns, and rituals specific to a faith tradition. These manuscripts served as essential guides for conducting rituals accurately and beautifully, often featuring elaborate calligraphy, illustrations, and decorative elements. They are valuable historical artifacts that reveal religious practices, artistic styles, and cultural history of the periods in which they were produced.
