Title: Meticulously Mapping Art Treasures in Altmark's Churches
Churches across the Altmark region are set to undergo a two-year artistic cataloging process, thanks to a 85,000 euro financial backing from the Saxony-Anhalt State Administration Office, announced by the Evangelical Church in Central Germany (EKM) recently. This extensive project will cover 100 churches, with 41 in Stendal's church district and 59 in Salzwedel.
Emphasizing the significance of these artistic and cultural assets, EKM’s regional church office's art inventory head, Diana Seeber-Grundmann, stated "It's vital to have a comprehensive overview of such valuable items, which often carry heavy sentimental and monetary worth." The project involves measuring, describing, photographing, assessing damage, and evaluating potential theft risks for these art pieces.
The EKM has already inventoried 1288 Saxony-Anhalt churches, preserving, researching, and protecting their valuable holdings.
