Herm of St. László (15th century)

Housed in the Héderváry Chapel of Győr Cathedral, this is an incredible and priceless bust reliquary of one of Hungary's earliest king-saints. I can't even describe how magnificent this was, and I'm sure the picture doesn't do it justice. It is one of Hungary's most sacred relics and is taken from its resting place and paraded around the city on June 27 of every year.
