A Market with History and Attitude
The antiquarian book fair is more than just a sales day: It connects book culture, craft, and professional exchange in a place that stands for Braunschweig's cultural history. The State Museum Hinter Aegidien uses the historical monastery rooms and the dormitory as a special backdrop for this sales exhibition. Expert information on book searching, care, collection building, and valuation is explicitly included.

What Visitors Can Expect
The focus is on book treasures, graphics, paper antiques, historical postcards, and documents. In addition, there will be a look at traditional craftsmanship: A Braunschweig bookbinding company that has been in existence for almost 75 years will present its work. Those looking for unique pieces, regional antiquarian scenes, and professional advice will find a calm, concentrated shopping experience full of atmosphere here.
