Statue of Saint Urban wearing pontifical vestments from the tabernacle of St. Andrew Church in Kalchreuth, made by Adam Kraft (ca. 1455/1460–1509) in 1498. The cast was made and given to the museum by Johann Göschel in 1901 who was a cast maker and stone carver in Nuremberg. The copy was exhibited in the Romanesque Hall of the newly opened museum in 1906. Probably lost during World War II, the current whereabouts of the artwork are unknown.
