Hildesheim Cathedral Museum, Religious art museum at Hildesheim Cathedral, Germany

The Hildesheim Cathedral Museum displays ecclesiastical art and historical objects in rooms adjacent to the southern transept of the Cathedral.

Bishop Eduard Jakob Wedekin expanded the museum's collection between 1796 and 1870, transforming it from a cathedral treasury into a diocesan museum.

The museum collection includes the Cross of Bernward, medieval manuscripts, reliquaries, and liturgical vessels that represent regional religious traditions.

Visitors enter through the Cathedral foyer and can participate in guided tours to learn about the thousand years of religious art history.

The Gobelins Artemisia, acquired in 1727, received its dedicated exhibition room after extensive restoration work completed in 2015.
