The Annales Sangallenses maiores (Latin for Greater Annals of St Gall) are annals compiled in St Gallen, covering the years 927 through to 1059.^[1] They continue the Annales Alamannici, the St Gallen version of which reaches up to 926.^[2]

The Annales record the most northerly sighting of the supernova of 1006,^[3] providing independent data as to its magnitude and location in the sky:

"[i]n a wonderful manner this was sometimes contracted, sometimes diffused, and moreover sometimes extinguished ... It was seen likewise for three months in the inmost limits of the south, beyond all the constellations which are seen in the sky".^[4]
