The Chapel of the Holy Blood is no less beautiful, originally created in the Romanesque
style like the lower chapel, but then transformed into the gothic style in the 16th century.
The staircase leading up to the chapel is a masterpiece in itself, designed according to the
paintings of Lancelot Blondeel, ornamented with sculptures all the way to the top.
