In 1824, the Society for the History and Antiquity of Pomerania (Gesellschaft für Pommersche Geschichte und Alterthumskunde) was established in Szczecin. It united, among others, scholars who conducted scientific research and published source editions. In the period of its many years of activity, the Society has accumulated rich collections that included monuments of material culture and a collection of books. In 1856, after the conclusion of the contract with the provincial archives in Szczecin (Königliche Provinzial-Archivs zu Stettin), the Society’s library was moved to this archives. The book collections of both institutions have inherited the library of today’s National Archives in Szczecin. We are talking about preserved collections, a significant part of them was dispersed during and after the World War II. This article presents selected examples of religious literature, focusing on editions published in the period from the fifteenth century to the first half of the twentieth century.
