Abstract
Case studies provide an insight into practical conservation work. The procedures described here are always based on specific situations and serve as illustrations of solutions. They rarely are transferable to other situations. However, they give an overview of preliminary tests, analytical methods and conservation measures and this methodology could be followed in other cases.
The case examples are presented by subject groups.
Case Studies: Wall Paintings
The repair and restoration work at the Imperial Cathedral Königslutter was completed in 2009 and the building was re-opened to the public. Salt damage was an important issue for the conservation of architectural finishes and murals and is represented in several examples.
Case Studies: Stone
- Salt crystallization in the Grotto Hall of the New Palace in Potsdam
- Salt crystallization in the crypt of St.Maria im Kapitol (St. Mary's in the Capitol) in Cologne
