This relic is the real treasure of the Cathedral. It is called the Sancta Camisia - the veil of Mary. Yes, Mary. I am still blown away that I have seen something worn by Mary. It was my favorite part of the Cathedral. The citizens of Chartres feel protected by this veil. This garment is the sole reason for the construction of this Cathedral - to honor Mary.
