Martin Luther University of Halle-Wittenberg
In his novel "The Forty Days of Musa Dagh" ("Die vierzig Tage des Musa Dagh"") the Austrian-Jewish author Franz Werfel portrayed Lepsius as a "guardian angel of the Armenians". Today, the intellectual heritage of Johannes Lepsius was collected by the German church historian Hermann Goltz, who installed the "Johannes Lepsius Archive" in Halle upon Saale with Martin Luther University of Halle-Wittenberg. Several documents and journals from the archive were published as microfiche.
