"In the 19th century canon Franz Bock from the German city of Aachen (also known as Aix-la-Chapelle) carefully collected sections of antique and medieval luxury textiles as models for his homemade silk manufacture. From the garbs from Brandenburg Cathedral’s collection he also took material and embroidery patterns. Later he sold his collection to newly opened arts and crafts museums throughout Europe. Consequently, parts of the Brandenburg garbs can today be found in Paris, London, Vienna, Berlin and Karlsruhe"
