A warm welcome to the 60th anniversary Stuttgart Rare Book Fair - this year in Ludwigsburg!

16 - 18 June 2023 at the Ludwigsburg "Forum am Schlosspark"

German and international rare bookshops and galleries will present rare books, prints, autographs, maps and illustrated works from 16 - 18 June 2023. 

After a break due to the pandemic, the German Association of Antiquarian Booksellers, Verband Deutscher Antiquare, invites you to the 60th anniversary fair in Ludwigsburg's "Forum am Schlosspark", accompanied by a programme of events for collectors and book lovers.

The Stuttgart Rare Book Fair, Germany's leading fair for the rare book and prints trade, is now taking place again after a longer break due to the pandemic. Since it was founded in 1962, the fair has been an annual meeting place for the German trade but also international visitors and exhibitors. Due to ongoing renovation work and pandemic-related postponements at its traditional venue, the fair will be held this year in Ludwigsburg's "Forum am Schlosspark", in close proximity to its traditional location in Stuttgart.

The baroque city of Ludwigsburg is not only the perfect backdrop, but also stands out as an ideal host for this year's fair. A city between modernity and a strong sense of history, art and literature.

59 rare bookshops and galleries will present the entire spectrum of the rare book and graphic arts trade from 16 to 18 June 2023. In addition to the German participants, the German Association of Antiquarian Booksellers also welcomes numerous international exhibitors this year: rare booksellers from Switzerland, Austria, the Netherlands, Italy, the United Kingdom and Denmark.

An unmissable weekend in Ludwigsburg for collectors, book lovers and the trade.

We look forward to meeting colleagues, friends and customers again in person. 
See you in Ludwigsburg!
