Auction 79 on May 09, 2026


The New Catalog is Online!

Over 1,100 lots from the fields of art, culture, and technical history await you at the 79th auction at the Kunst- und Auktionshaus Quedlinburg. A particular highlight is the 1.67-meter-tall bronze sculpture of the goddess Hera by GDR sculptor Wilfried Fitzenreiter, representing a rare testament to his mastery. Technology enthusiasts can look forward to high-quality garden railway rarities by Märklin and LGB, including the limited SBB "Crocodile" model and an extremely rare, handcrafted condensing locomotive. For lovers of classical painting, a symbolist oil painting by the Polish artist Feliks Michał Wygrzywalski will go under the hammer, depicting a nymph-like figure at a spring. Another highlight for pop culture fans is the legendary "The Addams Family" pinball machine, considered the best-selling machine of its kind and captivating with its innovative game mechanics. Adding an absolute sensation to the catalog is a very special object: a rare golden LEGO brick will be up for auction. Only 10 examples of this top-class collector's item exist worldwide, making this auction an absolutely unique opportunity for toy enthusiasts and investors alike.
The preview of these diverse objects will take place from April 25 to May 8, 2026, in Quedlinburg.

MIKE! I thought I was having a heart attack!

I ask Mike to attach the rope to this guillotine model (Lot 514)… and what does he do? He finds an old Halloween finger in the workshop and decides to shock me with it. For a second there, I was ready to call an ambulance. (Sound ON! ) Anyway, no worries — Mike still has (all) his fingers. And the good news (according to him): the fully functional 20th-century model… really works. Phew.

Never miss an auction again.
