Annales Laurissenses minores

Carolingian gate hall of the former abbey at Lorsch

Annales Laurissenses minores (German: Kleine Lorscher Annalen) or ALM is the Latin name of a medieval, historiographic text from the abbey at Lorsch near Worms in Germany. In many German texts, they are also called the Kleine Lorscher Frankenchronik ("Short Lorsch Chronicle of the Franks"), but in English may be referred to as the "Short chronicle of Lorsch"[1] or "Lesser Annals of Lorsch".[2]
