Il tesoro
Great medieval relics, gleaming with gold and gems, resembling the human form contained within them – leg, head, arm, rib or finger, were for centuries catalysts for the adoration of pious multitudes, moved armies of pilgrims, gave sight to the blind and made the lame walk, prevented the plague and brought victory in battle. To protect and honour this immense heritage of Faith and make them sparkle in the dark crypts of churches, skilled and devout goldsmiths hammered and set, polished and embossed to create precious masterpieces, spread around many churches and museums and here gathered together in a single Treasury.

Il tesoro
I grandi reliquiari medioevali, rutilanti d’oro e di gemme, foggiati antropomorficamente a esaltare il frammento corporeo in essi contenuto, gamba testa braccio costola dito, catalizzarono per secoli l’adorazione di pie folle, mossero eserciti di pellegrini, ridiedero vista ai ciechi e moto ai paralitici, scongiurarono pestilenze e procurarono vittorie in battaglia. Per proteggere e onorare questo immenso patrimonio della Fede, per farlo sfavillare nelle buie cripte delle chiese, orafi abili e devoti martellarono e incastonarono, levigarono e sbalzarono, creando preziosi capolavori dispersi in tante chiese e musei, qui radunati in un unico Tesoro.
