The Mamoničiai Printing House was active in Vilnius in the 16th and 17th centuries. It was founded by the brothers Kuzma and Leonas Mamoničiai around 1575. The printing house was famous for the high quality of its publications and printed books in ecclesiastical Slavonic, Polish and Latin. It published the first Slavic Bible in Lithuania and many religious and educational texts. At the beginning of the 17th century, it was one of the largest printing houses in Eastern Europe, and its publications spread throughout the LDK.
