Parts of the Nuremberg Imperial Regalia
Parts of the Nuremberg Imperial Insignia, which are needed for the coronation ceremony. On the left is the Holy Lance, which Henry I (King 919-936) acquired probably in 935 from Rudolf of Burgundy (French King 923-936). You can also see a part from the Cross of Christ. It is incorporated into a reliquary in cross form. According to the text the emperor in coronation robes (right) is Sigismund. He is invested with a crown, the ceremonial sword, imperial orb, the scepter, the Alb, the stole, and the royal coat
