The two-storeyed wardrobes typical of the Late Gothic period were named after one of their uses – the storing of church vestments and cloths. This Nuremberg wardrobe, with its sumptous decoration of pierced tracery backed with colour and carving in vegetal motifs and burr veneer is one of the finest in the important collection owned by the museum. The plinth and crenellation are 19th-century replacements of the originals.
