Great Mantle of St. Kunigunde
The Great Mantle of St. Kunigunde is an eleventh century garment that is now in the Diocesan Museum, Bamberg, Germany. It is associated with Queen Kunigunde of Luxembourg (c. 975-1040), the wife of Heinrich II (973-1024), who became the Holy Roman Emperor in 1014. The mantle is said to have been given to Bamberg Cathedral by St. Kunigunde.
