- Description
- The pulpit probably belonged to the former furnishings of the cathedral. It was made in the shape of a rectangular box with a slanting top wall, forming a base for a Bible. The openwork side walls were decorated with acanthus ornamentation. A painted inscription on the inside of the pulpit reads: "Diese hat Gott zu Ehren geschencket Chrystian Häsel mit sejner Ehefrau Anna Maria Kagels 173(?)2(?)2" [This was given to the glory of God by Christian Häsel with his wife Anna Maria Kagel 1732 (or 1722 - the third digit is blurred)].
