Yesterday, as part of my Central European Lit and Identity course I was fortunate enough to attend Vienna's National Treasury. The Treasury is part of the Hasbsurg Empire's Palace in the middle of the city, just inside of where the city walls used to stand erect. The Treasury features items from the Hasbsurg family's riches such as crowns, scepters, robes, painting, jewelry, and old religious relics. Some of those items are pictured below:

This is what Mighty Python was looking for? Pretty disappointing if you ask me! |

A crib fit only for a king, seriously. |

As my friend Sally pointed out, this is obviously a Christmas Tree skirt |
