How to Visit the Chapel of the Holy Grail
Enter through the Puerta de los Hierros of the Cathedral and head to the first chapel on the right. This simple and quiet space houses one of Christianity’s most precious relics: the Holy Grail.
Behind the altar, you can admire it inside a glass case, a priceless piece for what it represents and for the legends it has inspired throughout history.
The Alabaster Altarpiece
In front of you, embracing the Holy Grail, stands an alabaster altarpiece by the Italian artist Giuliano Poggibonsi, a disciple of Lorenzo Ghiberti, creator of the famous Gates of Paradise of the Florence Baptistery.
This work, which was the former choir door from the 15th century, shows twelve reliefs with scenes from the Old and New Testaments.
The Star Vault
If you look up, you’ll discover the ribbed star-shaped vault. On its keystones are depicted the twelve Apostles, and in the center, the Coronation of the Virgin in Heaven after the Assumption.
Treasures and Historical Symbols
To the left of the chapel hang some massive chains that once closed the port of Marseille, brought by Alfonso V the Magnanimous in 1423.
Above the 226 links hangs the painting “Expulsion of the Moors” by Vicente López, and on the opposite side, the fresco of the Adoration of the Magi by Nicolás Florentino.
