Named 'Man of the Millennium' in 1999, Johannes Gutenberg was the creator of one of the most influential and revolutionary inventions in Europe's history: a printing press with mechanical movable type. This invention sparked the printing revolution and represents one of the central contributions to the development of modernity.
