thumb|A page of Njáls saga from Möðruvallabók __NOTOC__ Möðruvallabók () or AM 132 fol is an Icelandic manuscript from the mid-14th century, inscribed on vellum. It contains the following Icelandic sagas in this order: Njáls saga Egils saga Finnboga saga ramma Bandamanna saga Kormáks saga Víga-Glúms saga Droplaugarsona saga Ölkofra þáttr Hallfreðar saga Laxdœla saga Bolla þáttr Bollasonar Fóstbrœðra saga

Many of those sagas are preserved in fragments elsewhere but are only found in their full length in Möðruvallabók, which contains the largest known single repertoire of Icelandic sagas of the Middle Ages.
