When did writing develop in Germany?

Writing in Germany began to develop during the early Middle Ages, around the 8th century, with the spread of Christianity and the establishment of monastic schools. The use of the Latin alphabet became prominent as monks transcribed religious texts. The Germanic tribes initially used runes, but Latin script eventually became the dominant form of writing.
