“When was the Gutenberg Bible published? Circa 1456, at Mainz, Germany. It was the first printed Bible and the first book set on movable metal type. German printer Johannes Gutenberg, inventor of movable type, is believed to have printed it, though Johann Fust and Peter Schoffer are also candidates.”
