The Collectio Berolinensis is a collection of early papal letters closely related to the Collectio Avellana. The sole extant copy is found in the first part of the composite manuscript Berlin, SBPK, Ms. Phill. 1776 at fol. 1-92.

The manuscript is also known as „codex Virdunensis“ (Sirmond) or „Handschrift von Verdun“ (Maassen), maybe because it was at Verdun in Sirmond‘s time (see Maassen p. 764).
