Bad Doberan (dpa/mv) – After the theft of money and objects from the cathedral in Bad Doberan (Rostock district), the local parish is now offering a finder’s fee. The community announced on Friday that it was about chalices, pitchers, a wafer box and baptismal bowls made of silver and brass for celebratory purposes. According to the information, 3000 euros will be advertised for the return of all objects.
Most of the pieces date from the 19th century, the oldest from 1797. “In addition to their artistic value, they have a high idealistic and religious significance for the parish,” it said. Unknown persons broke into the cathedral in May. According to earlier police reports, safes had also been broken into.
