Leur amenagement, signe Viollet le Duc, a ete renove a l'occasion du 850eme anniversaire de la cathedrale. Les salles exposent une serie impressionnante collection d'ornements, de calices, de croix, de camees representant les papes depuis St Pierre, et de reliquaires (le Tresor original fut pille a la Revolution). Ici, la croix Palatine, piece centrale du Tresor depuis 1828. Ce reliquaire de la croix d'Anne de Gonzague, princesse palatine, a ete realisee par l'orfevre Famechon en 1827 en remplacement de l'original, dessine par Charles Le Brun vers 1680, mais dont il ne subsiste que la croix centrale. Celle-ci proviendrait de l'empire grec de Trebizonde. Ce reliquaire sert d'ecrin a un morceau de la Croix et a un des clous de la Passion. // France - Paris (75) - Cathedral Notre Dame de Paris : The rooms of the Treasury, gathered in the sacristy of the chapter since the mid-nineteenth century.
