The Pannonhalma Gospel Lectionary is a medieval manuscript of considerable historical and artistic significance. Created in the early sixteenth century in the scriptorium of the abbey of Pannonhalma, a prominent Benedictine monastery, the lectionary provides invaluable insight into the transmission of Christian texts and art in medieval Hungary, highlighting the region's role in the context of European monastic traditions.
