Le constructeur oublié d'une horloge astronomique universelle avec globe céleste et terrestre Leonard Reisch de l'Allgäu
During my research into the genealogy of the south-west German Reisch family, I came across a very interesting male member of this clan in October 2023. This was a Leonard Reisch. Not to be confused with other bearers of this name, such as a master craftsman who is said to have made precious goblets in Nuremberg around 1633 and labelled them with his master's mark. Our Leonhard Reisch, on the other hand, made constructions of an astronomical clock and two associated globes in his profession as a cleric between 1690 and 1701. One of these globes was a celestial globe and the other a terrestrial globe.
