Albrecht von Nürnberg


Albrecht von Nürnberg was a medieval Bernese master sculptor originally from Nürnberg. He is first mentioned in 1492 and died some time after 1531 in Berne.
His principal works include the nine-metre wooden Christophorus figure originally installed at the Christoffelturm in Berne and the baptismal font in the Münster of Berne. With Matthäus Ensinger and Erhard Küng, Albrecht is one of three outstanding Bernese sculptors.
