Among the earliest monuments of Gothic goldsmithery in Prussia a particular place is taken by the Brodnica reliquary of Holy Cross Wood from ca.1330-40 which after the great war of King Vladislaus Jagiełło of Poland against the Teutonic Knights ended up at the collegiate church in Sandomierz and has been preserved at its treasury. A similar reliquary of Holy Cross Wood, though dated already from the 3 rd quarter of the 14 th century, has been preserved at the Gniezno Cathedral treasury. Subsequently, in the late 14 th century two similar reliquaries were created. Moreover, two other 14th-century examples of Prussian reliquaries of another type have been preserved. Both are elements of Teutonic castle chapels and both, having been Vladislaus Jagiełło war trophies, reached the churches of the Kingdom of Poland.
