Ursulaschrijn

The legend of Saint Ursula. 
   Van der heyliger maget sinte KUNERA. te RENEN.  

Ursula, a princess from Brittany in France, was asked by the King of England to marry his son. She accepted on one condition, namely that she would be allowed to undertake a pilgrimage to Rome accompanied by 11.000 virgins. The trip goes over the city of Basel and the Alps until the entire company reaches Rome, where they are received by Pope Cyriacus. On the way back, the entire group is stopped in Cologne by the Huns and killed because they do not want to abandon their Christian faith.
