Schlüssel
Anfang 16. Jahrhundert
This special key belongs to a specially shaped lock from the 16th century. The lock is characterised by over-coupled cylinder housings, which have a device corresponding to this multi-part key bit ("chapel key"). This meant that the lock could no longer be opened using a key with a different bit.
