Tickets for the 'Devil's Bible' exhibition must be reserved
Prague’s Clementinum has been equipped with a very modern safe room for a new exhibition which will start on 20th September 2007 and will last only until January 2008. It will show the most valuable item of the Swedish National Library – Codex Gigas alias Devil’s Bible.
From the beginning of September Clementinum will launch a reservation system where those who are interested in seeing the bible can reserve tickets. The number of tickets and the opening times will be restricted. 10 visitors will be allowed to enter the room at a time for 10 minutes. The exhibition will be open from Tuesday to Sunday from 10:00 to 19:00. The full ticket will cost 100 CZK, the reduced one 50 CZK.
The book will be open at the page showing the devil after which the book got its nickname. The rest of the book will be digitalized and available on three computers. There will be a special climate in the room appropriate for the manuscript and there will be high security measures in the room.
