The Abbey Museum of Echternach with the support of the Embassy of Luxembourg in Japan has contributed its manuscripts in facsimile form to an exhibit in Tokyo and Kyoto between 2006 and 2007. In this spirit, the students of the MG School of Latin Calligraphy have created artwork under the leadership of Mrs. Muriel Gaggini.

The tradition of the art of writing in Japan is also very old. Its adepts are interested in the calligraphy of other cultures. The texts and miniature works exhibited here are a reflection of the interest brought by the masterpieces executed in the scriptorium of Echternach.
