Claim: Fürstlich Sächsischer Hofbuchdruckerei zu Altenburg moved to Altenburg in 1604; its earliest work was published in 1606.
Evidence: In 1604, after the duke's death, the press moved to Altenburg. The earliest extant published work from the Altenburg press is Lotio Pedum (1606). Fürstlich Sächsischer Hofbuchdruckerei of Altenburg, Germany, is used generically in this article to denote a succession of book printers (sometimes synonymous with "publishers") based in Altenburg, in the German state of Thuringia (formerly East Germany), that — under various capacities, names, and owners – have endured as one continuous printing operation, without interruption (save and except wars), for four hundred and twenty-six years — since 1594, the early modern German period.
