The manuscript of the Younger Titurel was probably made for a wealthy patron around 1430 in South Tyrol. Its elaborate decoration with 85 miniatures in opaque colours makes it stand out among the surviving Middle High German epic manuscripts. Another special feature are the densely packed inscriptions in the margins of the parchment pages, which reflect the later use of the codex by the Austrian dynasty of the Fernbergs of Eggenberg from about 1580 until about the middle of the 17th century. The family used the manuscript as a representative guest book in a way similar to a family album, thus making it a source for personal studies on the history of Austria as well as for religious history in the times of the Counter-Reformation.
