25The most celebrated work of art in the cathedral
is the Shrine of the Three Kings, a large gilded
sarcophagus dating from the 13th century, and the
largest reliquary in the Western world. It is
traditionally believed to hold the remains of the
Three Wise Men, whose bones and 2,000-year-old
clothes were discovered at the opening of the
shrine in 1864.
