Project

Tomb of Ernst II of Saxony

Media Station

As part of the state and special exhibition “Early Renaissance in Central Germany. Power. Representation. Piety”, cura3D realized three interactive media stations for Kunstmuseum Moritzburg Halle (Saale). One focus was the digital presentation of the tomb of Ernst II of Saxony, located in Magdeburg Cathedral and therefore naturally impossible to include physically in the exhibition.

Between Place and Inaccessibility

A photogrammetric process was used to capture the tomb in high resolution. During this capture, an introductory video was also produced, explaining the architectural and historical context of the tomb in Magdeburg Cathedral. The virtual 3D model was then annotated with deeper information about the apostles and coats of arms depicted and transferred into an interactive application.

Early Renaissance in Central Germany

An exhibition at Kunstmuseum Moritzburg, Halle (Saale)
24.11.2024 – 02.03.2025

The exhibition offered a comprehensive look at art and culture in Central Germany during one of the most exciting periods of German history. Its central figure was Ernst II of Saxony (1464-1513), Archbishop of Magdeburg and Administrator of the Diocese of Halberstadt. His ambitious development of Halle as a princely residence city included the Moritzburg, one of the earliest palace buildings in Central Germany, where the late Gothic style still dominated at the end of the 15th century. The sovereign and church prince stood in productive competition with other bishops and princes, including his brothers Frederick the Wise and John the Steadfast.
