The Holy Grail was believed to be the cup that Jesus used in the Last Supper to present the wine used to represent the new covenent in his blood. Legends claim that the Grail was a golden goblet similar to the holy vessels for the drink offerings in the temple, that the Grail was protected by the Templar Knights and that the Grail was eventually hidden on the island of Avalon.
The Holy Grail has inspired authors and directors for centuries, notably Dan Brown for his book The Da Vinci Code, Stephen Spielberg for his film Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade and British comedians for their film Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
