This museum holds a large collection of the works of art. Here are the originals, many of which are meanwhile replaced with replicas all around he Piazza dei Miracoli, as many of them crumbled and weathered. The museum is well worth a visit, but was closed (for a year?) in autumn 2014.
This reliquary box ("chasse") came from Limoges, where in the 12th century a real industry produced these enamelled caskets. They were exported all over Europe.
