Liber memorialis of Remiremont

The unique manuscript is preserved in Rome, in the Biblioteca Angelica, where it is shelved as Manoscritto 10.

[1] Since then, it has been used by many historians as a source for early medieval practices of memory, as well as for the history of the monastery of Remiremont itself.

[3] The manuscript was begun under the direction of Abbess Theuthild, who also wrote a number of surviving letters that have been translated by Michel Parisse.

For that reason, Eva Butz and Alfons Zettler have described the Liber Memorialis of Remiremont as "a major document of the ecclesiastical and political reforms of the Carolingian Empire under Louis the Pious".

These included kings such as Lothar II, who seems to have visited the monastery in the company of Waldrada and other members of his family in late 861.
