Abstract Mediaeval stained glasses are characterized by a high content of modifier ions responsible for their sensitivity towards atmospheric corrosion. Sulphur dioxide associated with moist air is the main agent responsible for alterations and products involved in the corrosion are mainly sulphates. Micro-organisms are other destructive agents of the glass surface. Some of them metabolize iron and manganese and their intervention in the displacement of such elements is considered.
