The first impression<\/h3>\nThe Holy Chalice of Valencia arouses feelings of admiration and scepticism at the same time.<\/h2>\n
The visitor feels captivated by the beauty of the Grail, its perfect and exceptional shape, the details in gold, the pearls and the precious stones. The observer comes with the mind full of legends, films, even warned by novels and pseudo-scientific literature of \u201cGrail-like\u201d<\/em> themes.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column_inner][\/et_pb_row_inner][et_pb_row_inner admin_label=”Row” padding_mobile=”off” use_custom_gutter=”off” column_padding_mobile=”on” make_equal=”off” parallax_1=”off” parallax_method_1=”off” module_class=”bk-2″][et_pb_column_inner type=”4_4″ saved_specialty_column_type=”1_2″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Text – But also with scepticism” background_layout=”dark” text_orientation=”left” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid”]<\/p>\n
But also with scepticism<\/h4>\n\n- How can that medieval-looking chalice be the cup of the Last Supper<\/li>\n
- Why is it in Valencia?<\/li>\n
- Or is it maybe one of the many supposed Grails? <\/li>\n
- Why isn’t it so famous like the Shroud of Turin or the Tunic of Treveris?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
And many more questions we hear every day in the Cathedral…<\/p>\n
