Fareweel, ye dungeons dark and strang
A lang fareweel tae thee!

The Jena university library have digitised and made fully available the Jena Liederhandschrift, and important and rather fine collection of poetry, written in the 1330s. It does not, alas, contain any sensational pictures, but it's a high status manuscript nonetheless and nice to look at. There are also photos of the restoration process, which will interest anyone who's curious about how mediaeval books were put together or looked after, and a little video showing the restorers at work. Unfortunately the site is only in German, but the pictures at least are fairly self-explanatory.
