Their artistic processing, rich decoration and a number of rare materials do not match paintings or sculptures, yet in the past they were not given more systematic research or exhibition attention. We are talking about paraments, ie special ceremonial textiles, which were used to increase the ceremonial character of worship services. These “hidden treasures” of church inventories are still preserved in the Olomouc Cathedral of St. Wenceslas. The selection of the most valuable and also the most interesting will be presented by the upcoming exhibition Ornamenta episcopi.
