The original reliquary was made for the canonization ceremony of the king, but it was destroyed in a fire. The one which is today stored in the Basicila of Győr (Győri bazilika) was created around the turn of the 14th and 15th century. The gold-plated silver head was rescued during the Turkish invasion and put in the cathedral in 1606.
