This Liber benefactorum, the book of benefactors of the Carthusian
Monastery of Basel, was written gradually between the 1430s and the
1520s. The main part of the manuscript, a calendar created in the
early 15th century, contains the names of over 800 benefactors. The
manuscript was designed from the beginning as a Liber benefactorum
and has close ties to an annal from the Basel charterhouse that
was written during the tenure of Prior Heinrich Arnoldi (StABS,
Klosterarchiv Kartaus N).
