The high points of the collection are the models and photographs of the Church of St. Joseph by Boehm, a group of four gargoyles by the sculptor Hensler, chalices and patenae by Michaelis, several original pieces by Barlach, a copper crucifix by Hans Wissel, reminiscent of the crucifix at Isenheim.
