But here's the real highlight: Museo di Arte Sacra is the only place outside of Spain where you can admire the prestigious Order of the Golden Fleece. This small symbol of honor was granted by the emperor to his closest and bravest dignitaries, allowing them to keep their hats on in the presence of imperial majesties. It was owned by the crown and had to be returned after the owner's death. Only Vespasiano, due to his exceptional merits, was allowed to be buried with it. The accidental discovery of his remains a few decades ago now allows us to admire this unique artifact.
So, what are you waiting for? Embark on a journey through history and spirituality at Museo di Arte Sacra "A passo d'uomo"!
