Restored grave railings
Raadi 2015
This old railing on the
Raadi graveyard had lost its original appearance over the years. Some details
were bent, some rusted and some altogether lost.
Now
the railings have been restored to their former shape.
In 2010,
a winter storm felled a tree on the railing which bent many of the iron details
out of shape and broke the corner post. Hidden cracks in the old material were
relieved in the course of the restoration works, which were impossible to spot
before disassembling the railing, but made the work a lot more difficult. Today,
the railings have been restored to their former shape, only the new coat of
paint was missing when the photos were taken.
