Goethe University Frankfurt
Institution: Goethe University Frankfurt

Goethe University is a university located in Frankfurt am Main, Germany. It was founded in 1914 as a citizens’ university, which means it was founded and funded by the wealthy and active liberal citizenry of Frankfurt. The Gutenberg Bible was the earliest major book printed using mass-produced movable metal type in Europe. It marked the start of the “Gutenberg Revolution” and the age of printed books in the West. The book is valued and revered for its high aesthetic and artistic qualities as well as its historical significance. The digitised version of the Gutenberg Bible is now preserved for eternity.
