Carolingian culture at Reichenau and St. Gall. Codex Sangallensis 1092: content and context, Online: University of Virginia, University of California at Los Angeles, University of Vienna, ?–present. URL: <https://stgallplan.org>. 
abstract:
This site will provide access to the results of our long-term project of creating an extensive data base to aid research into the [St Gall] Plan and Carolingian monastic culture. Besides a variety of digital representations of the Plan itself, the site includes a graphic representation of how the Plan was physically made, detailed information on each of the elements of the Plan, and transcriptions and translations of its inscriptions. In addition, the site contains resources for understanding the material culture context of the Plan. A series of extensive data bases include one presenting physical objects found across Europe that add to our understanding of Carolingian monasticism, one devoted to the terminology of Carolingian material culture, descriptions of all known Carolingian religious edifices, and an extensive bibliography on both the Plan itself and Carolingian monastic culture generally. All these databases are searchable individually and collectively.
