The Lobkowicz collection, originally kept at Roudnice Castle, in 1941 was confiscated by the Germans and deposited in the university library at Prague which in turn became the national library of the Czech Republic (Národní knihovna České republiky). The books became state property under communist rule. In the 1990s the collection was returned to the Lobkowicz family, but as of 1998 the medieval manuscripts were still preserved in the national library as a separate collection (Prazská Lobkowiczká knihovna). Today, the Lobkowicz Collection is partly preserved in Prague, partly in Nelahozeves Castle.

There is 1 manuscript in this Wiki which is held by Praha, Lobkowiczká knihovna; see Category:Manuscript in Praha, Lobkowiczká knihovna.
