Ruling over modern-day France, Belgium, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Switzerland, and much of Germany and Italy, Charlemagne was a Frankish king and Holy Roman Emperor who died in 814. The Bust of Charlemagne is a gold reliquary containing Charlemagne’s skull, which was created in 1349. It can be seen in the Treasury of Aachen Cathedral, Germany.
