The article summarises the results of a query carried out in the Archdiocese Archives in Gniezno during which five old prints bound in parchment sheets that undoubtedly come from one and the same manuscripts were found. In addition, another query in the font MS “Fragmenty” surfaced the existence of yet two more pages (sheets) from the same manuscript that had been already taken out from the bindings. The codicological and paleographical analyses of the remains of the manuscript show that it must have originated in a Cistercian scriptorium at the end of the twelfth century. The content of the surviving seven sections indicates that they were part of a large-sized collection of homilies (de tempore, pars aestivalis). The four old prints with their bindings including the sheets from the manuscript were once kept at the former library of the Cistercian monastery in Wągrowiec. In conclusion then, it can be stated with a great deal of confidence that the manuscript itself, whose pages had been used for the bindings of the books, must have been included in the collection of the monastery’s library. The resulting conclusion is that the parchment fragments found in the bindings of the Wągrowiec old prints must be remnants of the oldest known manuscript codex from the old Łekno-Wągrowiec abbey.

Artykuł przedstawia efekty kwerendy w Archiwum Archidiecezjalnym w Gnieźnie, w trakcie której udało się natrafić na pięć starodruków oprawionych w pergaminowe karty pochodzące niewątpliwie z jednego rękopisu. Ponadto kwerenda w zespole Ms. Fragmenty ujawniła istnienie jeszcze dwóch kart z tego rękopisu, wyjętych już z opraw. Analizy kodykologiczna oraz paleograficzna pozostałości tego manuskryptu wykazują, że powstał on najwyżej w końcu XII wieku w skryptorium cysterskim. Treść zachowanych siedmiu fragmentów sugeruje, że są one pozostałością po dużych rozmiarów homiliarzu (część de tempore, pars aestivalis). Cztery starodruki, w których oprawach stwierdzono fragmenty rękopisu, pochodziły z dawnej biblioteki klasztoru cystersów w Wągrowcu. Można zatem z dużym prawdopodobieństwem przypuścić, że sam rękopis, którego karty wykorzystano do ich oprawy, wchodził niegdyś w skład biblioteki tego klasztoru. Tym samym pergaminowe fragmenty odnalezione w oprawach wągrowieckich starodruków są pozostałością po jak dotąd najstarszym znanym kodeksie rękopiśmiennym z dawnego opactwa w Łeknie-Wągrowcu.

The article examines an inventory of monastic records kept in the Archdiocesan Archives in Gniezno. It covers archive documents from the Monastic Records section as well as archival units spread across various fonds in the archives. The Monastic Records section was established in the 1970s following a separation of monastic records from the Archives of the Metropolitan Chapter fonds. The section also encompasses archive documents from the Monastery of the Norbertine Sisters in Strzelno, which were transferred from Strzelno to Gniezno on Cardinal Stefan Wyszyński’s orders in 1961. The remaining part of the inventory is made up primarily of records from the period of dissolutions in the 18th and 19th centuries kept in the Archives of the Metropolitan Chapter fonds as well as records of the various parishes. The whole collection of archive documents is very rich and varied in terms of its contents, and concerns religious orders established in the Archdiocese of Gniezno before the 1850s.
