The Bibliothek der Kirchenväter is a German website, which provides a selection of patristic literature in a German 19th century translation. These revised texts are very useful for a first access to Patristics and are available for reuse (with an appropriate reference). Very useful is the possibility to search for a specific term within the texts provided (more than one hundred) or in the corpora of one author. This makes the Bibliothek der Kirchenväter one of the most important digital points of contact for theological research.
