Description
The chasuble was given to the cathedral as a gift by Polish settlers who came to Třebovsk's Třebovsk area from the village of Brzozdovce near Lviv in 1945. The vestment is a compilation of various elements - the baroque 18th-century embroidery columns were probably sewn onto a new backing in the late 19th century, and new sides and lining were also added.Chasuble
