Verschollen geglaubtes Planmaterial von Balthasar Neumann und seinem Baubüro, und eine unbekannte Zeichnung aus dem Umfeld Johann Dientzenhofers
Abstract
The article deals with 31 plans the author came across in the cartographic collection of the Austrian National Library. The drawings, rendering as yet unknown information on the blueprints of the residences of Bamberg, Mergentheim, Bruchsal and the Imperial Chamber Court (Reichskammergericht) of the Holy Roman Empire at Wetzlar, are assigned to the workshop of Balthasar Neumann, some of them personally signed by him. Furthermore, a first draft of Weißenstein castle near Pommersfelden, ascribed to Johann Dientzenhofer or his workshop, was discovered and is presented.
