If we had to sum up the Trésor des Evêques, we'd say it's a piece worth its weight in gold.

You're in the cloister and your curiosity prompts you to open this wooden door. In this Treasure you'll find a large display case, the former sacristy cabinet two smaller display cases. But the interest of this room lies not in the furniture, but rather in what it houses: a collection of religious objects, statues and books. The centerpiece is the silver reliquary bust of Saint-Lizier, decorated with gilding and precious stones. It contains the saint's skull and was used during processions.
