The Codex Gigas ("Giant Book"; ) is the largest extant medieval illuminated manuscript in the world, at a length of 92 cm. It is a Romanesque Latin Bible, with other texts, some secular, added in the second half of the book. Very large illuminated Bibles were typical of Romanesque monastic book production, but even among these, the page size of the Codex Gigas is exceptional.
