    Hiking

    At the beginning of the 8th century, some relics of Saint Maurice, especially his head, were introduced into the cathedral. His cult was promoted by the piety and generosity of the Carolingian rulers (Boso in the 9th century) and the kings of Burgundy (10th–11th century).
    Inside the cathedral, the beautiful harmony of the naves does not hide the different construction periods from the 12th to the beginning of the 16th century. It was important for the successive master builders to reintegrate older carved elements into the structure.
