Codex Gigas Giant Czech Book: The Obří kniha is the world's largest surviving illuminated medieval manuscript, measuring 92 cm (36 in) long. Very large illuminated Bibles were typical of Romanesque monastic book production, but even among them, the page size of the Codex Gigas was an exception. The manuscript is also known as the Book of Satan due to its highly unusual full-page portrait of Satan, and the legend surrounding the book's creation.
