Otto der Große in der Erinnerung späterer Zeiten. Katalog zur Sonderausstellung im Kulturhistorischen Museum Magdeburg 28. April bis 8. Oktober 2023, ed. Claus Peter Hasse and Gabriele Köster.

Commemorating 1050 years since Otto the Great’s death (912−973), the collection foregrounds the ruler as a foundational European monarch and his connection to Magdeburg, which he lavished with rights and privileges after making it a bishopric as dower for his first wife; a city which still brands itself with the historical legacy of the Ottonian king. The volume begins with a foreword and three studies followed by a catalog divided into seven thematic groups and ample end matter. ER -
