History

The codex was divided into two parts and now located in two places. Matthew and Mark on 112 folios are housed in Εθνική Βιβλιοθήκη (137), in Athens. Luke and John on 148 folios are housed in Bibelmuseum (Ms. 7) in Münster.[3]

Gregory saw the manuscript in 1886. The part of the manuscript housed in Münster was digitalized by the CSNTM in 2007.[7]
