The epitaph and the death shield of Andreas Georg Paumgartner
After his death in 1686, Andreas Georg Paumgartner was buried in the St. Johannis cemetery in Nuremberg . Its rich epitaph from bronze by Georg Schweigger , 1679 dated even for life time is of handicraft importance and has unusual details on. The lower jaw of the life-size bronze skull under the family coat of arms has a hinge and can be made to rattle. The skull has a hole on the forehead on the temple side, which led to the legend of Paumgartner's secret murder with a nail by his wife. This legend was processed criminally by Lena Bloom ("Roses in St. Johannis"). A wooden death shield has been preserved in the presbytery of the Holnstein castle chapel.
