Treasure

The reliquary interface

Sacred treasures are artifacts of particular cultural, religious, or historical importance that can be placed in holy sites to provide a small modifier to every territory in the province. Each treasure is unique and there are only a finite number of possible treasures in the game, with most being placed at start and a few created through special missions or events, but can be collected and taken from other countries by desecrating their holy sites or seizing their reliquaries.

Altars

Each holy site has a certain number of altars, depending on the status of the territory it is located in: one for settlements, two for cities, and three for metropolises. Each altar is a slot where a treasure can be potentially placed, which will allow the treasure to be confer its bonuses to the entire province (not just the territory its holy site is in); it is therefore useful to build many holy sites and bring as many sacred treasures as possible to the capital province in order to maximize the effects of their bonuses. The treasures stored in each owned holy site as well as those of deities in the pantheon (even if unowned) can be viewed in the religion screen, while the presence of treasures in other holy sites can be seen in the religion mapmode and by looking for modifiers in the tooltip of the holy site icon in the territory interface.

A treasure can only be placed in an altar if its holy site's deity is in the country's current pantheon, though treasures that have already been placed will continue to give their bonuses to its province. There are no restrictions on where a treasure can be placed or when it will give its bonuses; any treasure can be placed in any holy site regardless of its religion or the state religion of the country that owns it. Treasures can also be removed from altars where the holy site's deity is in the pantheon and deposited back into the reliquary at a cost of +1.00 Aggressive Expansion, which leaves the holy site intact and the altar slot free for another treasure to be placed.

Treasures will also be removed from an altar if its holy site is destroyed through desecration. Desecration can be done through the Religion menu if the holy site is owned or by using the Desecrate Holy Sites army interaction on an army located in the holy site's territory, at a cost of 2 aggressive expansion. Importantly, the Desecration army action only requires that the territory is controlled, not necessarily owned, which makes it the easiest way to seize treasures held in the holy sites of other countries.

Reliquary

Unplaced sacred treasures are held in the nation's reliquary and confer no benefits, but cannot be taken through desecration. Treasures in the reliquary can be placed in owned holy sites of any deity in the pantheon, as long as there are altar slots remaining. Upon annexation by conquest, the conqueror is guaranteed to seize at least 2 treasures from the reliquary, if there exist that many; above that, up to 2 treasures in the nation's reliquary will be spirited away to another country within diplomatic range if any exist, with all the rest taken by the conqueror. Diplomatic annexation, will transfer all reliquary treasures to the overlord.

Clicking on the reliquary icon in the religion screen will show a list of all the treasures owned by the country, including both those placed in all holy sites as well as those stored in the reliquary (identifiable as currently generically in the country as opposed to a specific territory).

List of treasures

Treasures are listed by the religion they are associated with, usually the deity of their holy site if placed in one or the state religion of the country that holds them in its reliquary. Note that this should not be taken as an indication that a treasure is tied to any given religion; any treasure can be installed in a holy site of any deity or religion and will always confer its bonus regardless of the state religion of the holy site's owner. Some treasures will also only appear if a certain DLC is enabled.
