Sieben Jahrgänge der Konservierung- und Restaurierungsstudiengänge der HAWK in Hildesheim haben am Chorgestühl aus Tobsdorf (Siebenbürgen) von 1537 gearbeitet und geforscht. U.A. wurde die durch holzzerstörende Insekten stark geschädigten Holzteile mit einer Kunstharzlösung gefestigt und das Chorgestühl dem Schäßburger Schreinerwerkstatt von Johannes Reychmut zugeordnet. Diese Publikation erläutert die Arbeiten in der HAWK und vermittelt einen Eindruck von der reichen historischen Innenausstattung der Siebenbürgischen Kirchen.

The famous choir stalls from Tobsdorf in Transylvania dating from 1537 are standing again. Seven years of conservation and restoration courses at the HAWK University of Applied Sciences and Arts Hildesheim/Holzminden/Göttingen have worked and researched on the sacred piece of furniture. One of the main tasks was to consolidate the wooden parts, which had been severely damaged by wood-destroying insects, with a synthetic resin solution. It was also possible to attribute the choir stalls to the Sighisoara carpentry workshop of Johannes Reychmut.
This publication presents the work of the HAWK and gives an impression of the rich historical interior decoration of Transylvanian churches. The texts and illustrations accompany the choir stalls from their rediscovery, through their conservation and restoration, to their departure for their new location in the St. Margret’s church in Mediasch.
