About this Item
Title
Ortenburg Armorial.
Other Title
Ortenburger Wappenbuch
Summary
This armorial was probably written and illuminated by different hands in Bavaria between 1466 and 1473. It contains heraldic devices of the Quaternions (Groups of Four, each representing different social groups of the Holy Roman Empire). It also illustrates the crests of (mostly) Bavarian princes, noblemen, territories, bishoprics, and prince-bishops. Despite its somewhat crude execution, it is a valuable resource for the heraldry of Southern Germany towards the end of the 15th century. By 1534 the manuscript had come into the possession of the counts of Ortenburg, near Passau; there, heraldic devices of the Ortenburg family and their ancestors were added. It remained with the family until 1953, when it was sold to the Bavarian State Library, where it is preserved.

Johann Georg von Werdenstein
Johann Georg von Werdenstein (1542–1608), canon of
Augsburg and Eichstätt, was the owner of a very substantial
library consisting of tens of thousands of books.
Werdenstein came from an aristocratic family and entered the
Catholic Church, becoming a canon of Augsburg Cathedral in
1563, and adding a further canonry at Eichstatt in 1567.
Around 9,000 volumes from his library including many
musical items were purchased in 1592 for 6,000 florins by
William V, Duke of Bavaria, for the Ducal Library in Munich,
now the Bavarian State Library.
