Schatzkammer

Posted on Thursday, November 24, 2011 | 0 Comments

Last week in Austrian History we went to the Schatzkammer, or the National Treasury. Our teacher was quite the knowledgeable tour guide, and took us through the whole thing explaining as she went. I'm quite impressed with how much my teachers know at times. I guess that's why they're teaching me and not the other way around.

This is the crib of the Duke of Reichstadt, who happens to be Napoleon's son. He died at a young age, many believe due to poisoning by Napoleon's enemies. Not that Napoleon had much to do with his son anyway.

Apparently THIS is the Holy Grail.

Not this.

Relics from the Twelve Apostles, so they say.
