Summary[edit]

Description
English: Detail of the so-called small crypt in the Basilica of Saint Servatius in Maastricht, Netherlands. The Latin inscription is above the 10th or 11th-century sarcophagus (or cenotaph) of Charles of Lower Lorraine in the crypt. However, according to the inscription he was buried in 1001, which is nine years after his death. It is therefore possible that the sarcophagus is a cenotaph. Normally, the small crypt cannot be accessed but at this special occasion, the 2018 Heiligdomsvaart (Relics Pilgrimage), it is open for pilgrims to visit. The history of the Heiligdomsvaart goes back to the Middle Ages. The first 'modern' version of this seven-yearly, ten-day catholic pilgrimage took place in 1874. The 2018 Heiligdomsvaart was the 55th modern edition.
