The holy relic is featured on in the upper chapel which was actually redesigned in a Gothic style during the 16th century. The relic was allegedly collected by Joseph of Arimathea and brought by Thierry of Alsace, Court of Flanders, from the Holy Land.  The Basilica itself is completely free for entry, however the museum is 2,50 Euros per person.
