The volume contains about 400 catalogue numbers with the medieval and early modern inscriptions from the 7th century to the year 1700. The catalogue begins with the only preserved early medieval gravestone of the Roteldis. After that, inscriptions are only found again from the 14th century. The gravestones of the Lords of Kronberg and, from the 15th century onwards, the noble gravestones in Eppstein and Königstein with figural gravestones stand out. The noble self-image of the von Kronberg family is also reflected in battle scenes, family pictures and window cycles. The burial place of the Landgraves of Hesse in the princely crypt of the Homburg Residence forms a separate focus for the 17th century. Numerous tin coffins of the landgravial family bear impressive witness to the piety of a princely family in detailed biblical quotations and lengthy epitaphs. Since the end of the 16th century, inscriptions by learned theologians and jurists, pastors and officials as well as citizens have survived. The volume also contains a larger collection of half-timbered houses with poetic inscriptions.
