On the north wall of Meissen Cathedral are sculptures of Emperor Otto I and his wife Adelheid, created around 1260 by the Naumburg Master, an important but anonymous sculptor and master builder of the 13th century.
However, Otto the Great (912-973) was buried in Magdeburg Cathedral. "It is also a perfect genetic match," said Harald Meller, Director of the Saxony-Anhalt State Office for Monument Preservation and Archaeology (LDA), in Magdeburg at the presentation of the latest research results.
