In the summer of 2012, during the dismantling of a chapel-wall in the Church of St. Leonhard in Frankfurt, archaeologists recovered ashlars presenting delicate sculptural shapes covered with rich colourful painting. The squared stones proved to be fragments of an altar in late Gothic style depicting the Holy Sepulchre (Heilig-Grab-Altar). The altar itself, whose original appearance has been preserved in merely two inaccurate images, was destroyed during the secularisation of the church in around 1809. Within the context of this Bachelor-Thesis, the recovered fragments serve as basis for the understanding of the exact structure of the altar as well as its virtual reconstruction. The survey primarily aims at mapping the artwork by assigning each of the recovered components to a specific position within the ensemble. Recording the separate fragments by means of 3D-scanning proved to be an appropriate procedure in this endeavour. The computer-based model thus created not only visualises the existing surface and body structures of the altar, but may also facilitate future reconstruction concepts. In addition, the stock-taking yields significant insights about different phases in the construction of the former altar. The second section of the paper presents an investigation into the current condition of the highly fragile polychrome painting and formulates the specific requirements for consolidants.
