The cathedral holds an immense collection of religious art and artefacts . The oldest of our pieces date back to the 8^th century, the youngest from the late 1990’s. Pride of place goes to the most important example of western European medieval painting; “the Adoration of the Mystic lamb” by the brothers Van Eyck. Our church has been a loving home for this master piece since 1432 Unfortunately it is impossible to show all interesting pieces	ART
