Incunabula represent a highly significant part of our cultural heritage. Unfortunately, the public rarely learns about their importance and value. The Slovak National Library prepared an exhibition and guided tours for the public. That is why the Slovak National Library has prepared an exhibition and guided tours for the public. They will help visitors understand the value of early printed books and provide an accessible overview of the history of printing, book illumination, and bookbinding.

The interactive exhibition *Art Preserved in Incunabula* appeals to both experts and general visitors interested in the history of art, book culture, literature, and regional or ecclesiastical history. Guided tours are tailored to the visitors’ age, allowing them to actively participate in the processes of printing, decorating, and binding books as practiced in the 15th century. Visitors also have the opportunity to ask questions of experts, who have spent years researching and cataloguing these early printed works.

You can visit the exhibition at the SNK headquarters building until the end of September 2026.
