Global InformationWrisberg epitaph information
The Wrisberg Epitaph is a triptych, which was created by the Hildesheim painter Johannes Hopffe († 1615) in 1585 as an epitaph for the Domherr Ernst von Wrisberg. The original frame did not survive. However, copies were created and subsequently hidden during the Second World War, the central one could be viewed in the south transept of Hildesheim Cathedral until January 2010. During the renovation of the cathedral (2010–2014) the three panels were on display in a reconstructed frame in the Weserrenaissance-Museum in Schloss Brake, Lemgo.
