It is a long time since the last comprehensive compilation of meteoric observations from medieval European sources was published. Since then, the advances in information technology, search engines and, above all, the emergence and development of the Internet have facilitated the access to and search for these records for scholars, making their work easier and even avoiding the need to go to libraries that keep the documents. In this paper, we have significantly enlarged the list of reports of medieval European meteoric events, using mainly the current classical sources and also other local documents previously not considered by the authors that have dealt with this issue.
