A reliquary in Sint-Pieterskerk of Leuven, Belgium
As you may recall, a reliquary is a container that holds a relic. Often this means a "first class relic." That is, a piece of the corpse of a dead saint.
This particular reliquary holds a body purported to have belong to a legendary figure who was forced to marry against her will, died somehow and whose body was sighted floating down the Djill. At least, that's what I think the brocure said. This was several months ago that I took this picture and I don't think the borcure was in English. Also, I was kind of drunk. Anyway.
