Treasury of the Basilica of Saint Servatius, Religious artifacts museum at Sint Servaasbasiliek, Maastricht, Netherlands

The Treasury occupies two floors of a double chapel within the basilica, displaying medieval textiles, religious objects, and archaeological findings.

Founded in 1070, the treasury underwent significant changes when Spanish troops damaged the collection in 1579, leading to relocation to Liège for protection.

The collection contains four main categories: Servatiana objects, reliquaries, liturgical implements, and textiles from Constantinople and Middle Eastern regions.

The museum maintains regular visiting hours, offers guided tours, and provides special rates for students while children under 18 enter free with adults.

The Key and Pectoral Cross of Saint Servatius remain among the most notable artifacts in this collection of ecclesiastical treasures.
