The elaborate Gothic ciborium in the middle of the transept is by Giovanni di Stefano, and was consecrated with the altar by Pope Urban V in 1370. Contributions to the cost were made by King Charles V of France and one Pietro Belliforte, whose heraldic shields were incorporated into the decoration in gratitude.
