Prague, Nov 23 (CTK) - The rare Romanesque reliquary of St. Maur made of gilded silver and gilded copper and decorated with almost 200 precious stones was transported to Prague Castle, the presidential seat, to be displayed to public there as of Wednesday, under strict security measures yesterday.
The reliquary of St. Maur was made on the order of the Benedictine monastery in Florennes, Belgium, for the relics of St. Maur, St. Timothy and St. John Baptist in the first quarter of the 13th century.
