The Historikerkanzlei worked for a British TV production company whose very popular shows are broadcast on the BBC

Christoph carried out extensive research for us over a period of several months. The work involved searches in all of Vienna’s main archives, as well as coordinating research abroad. His reports were clear and detailed, and he was very engaged with the historical context of the documents he was looking at, often constructing narratives from his findings that opened up new avenues of research.

Working under pressure, Christoph was always friendly, helpful, and patient, and did his best to negotiate the bureaucracy of the archives. We achieved a great deal throughout the time we worked together, despite the daunting scale of our project.

Christoph is extremely diligent and hard working, and completely committed to the task at hand. It was a pleasure working with him.
