"Getruckt zů Zürich" with a focus on disputations - Reformation in the crossfire

The Grossmünster houses a unique collection of Bibles and writings from the Reformation period 500 years ago. This treasure is made accessible to the public on the gallery in the church. In addition to numerous printed Bibles, there is also a collection of Zurich Reformation writings. A selection of original prints from the disputation period has been on display since January 2023 to mark the 500th anniversary of the First Zurich Disputation. The reformers sought to bring the Holy Scriptures to the people and into conversation. By means of "disputations" (debates), the truth was to be found on the basis of the Bible.
