Abstrakt: The study deals with a collection of approximately fifty manuscripts Bohemica from the defunct library in the Sternberg Palace in the Lesser Town of Prague. Most of the volumes were acquired by the last owner of the library, Franz Josef von Sternberg-Manderscheid (1763–1830). The manuscripts from the 14th–18th centuries come not only from the libraries of the first owners of the Lesser-Town palace but also from the Sternberg Palace at Hradčany, from the property of dissolved monasteries and literati brotherhoods, and from the literary estates of contemporary bibliophiles. Only less than twenty books can be linked to individual Sternbergs, with the largest group consisting of eleven volumes containing ex libris by the builder of the Hradčany Palace, Wenzel Adalbert von Sternberg (1643–1708). Some of the manuscripts of the Lesser-Town palace library are a valuable source for the history of Czech Baroque and Enlightenment historiography.
