Due to the relocation of our external warehouse the books and doctoral dissertations stored there, as well as the entire stock of the library's periodicals, will be unavailable until the beginning of January 2025. Many of our books are still available for loan and current literature can be found on the open shelves.

Unus non sufficit orbis – One world is not enough: Hungarian Jesuits in South America (Virtual exhibition)

Our chamber exhibition on the Hungarian Jesuits' missions in South America, which opened in 2023 as part of the Cultural Heritage Days series, moved to the virtual space.

Visitors to our exhibition are able to gain insight into a unique selection of manuscripts and printed material. The South American continent was one of the main scenes of the Jesuit Order's flourishing in the 18th century. It was here that the most enthusiastic and adventurous members of the Jesuit Order, including Jesuits of Hungarian origin, carried out their conversion work. If you want to know what adventures the Fathers had in the depths of the jungle, how they canoed down the Amazon or what experiences they had among the Indians, visit our virtual exhibition!
