All Saints Chapel (Nuremberg)
The All Saints Chapel (also Landauer Chapel ) in Nuremberg is a late Gothic sacred building. It was built between 1501 and 1510 as the house chapel of the Landauer Twelve Brothers House based on plans by the Nuremberg architect Hans Beheim the Elder. Ä.
The building is a short three-aisled hall church , which ends at the top with a reticulated vault . Albrecht Dürer created the All Saints picture , also called the Landau Altar , for the furnishings in 1511 (the painting is now in the Kunsthistorisches Museum Wien , the original frame in the Germanisches Nationalmuseum Nürnberg; in the chapel itself you can see a copy of the picture, made by Helmut Weigand, Teacher at the Willstätter-Gymnasium ). After the death of the founder, the merchant Matthäus Landauer , the chapel housed his burial place.
On the west side of the chapel, the Willstätter Gymnasium was built in 1955/56 to replace the Twelve Brothers House that was destroyed during the Second World War .
