'''Gallilenus III''' is a [[Cardinal World]] of the [[Imperium]]. The planet is roughly four hundred light years away from Holy [[Terra]] and is the most visited place by pilgrims who are travelling to the [[Imperial Palace]].{{Fn|1}}
==Overview==
It is considered one of the oldest worlds to have been incorporated into the [[Ministorum]] and boasts not only huge palaces and cathedrals but also extensive catacombs of ancient tombs as well as vast reliquaries. The bodies, or even parts of them, of several saints are believed to reside within them and are guarded by a detachment of [[Battle Sisters]]. Due to its nature, the planet is often visited by [[Inquisitor]]s to subscribe to the [[Thorian]] belief and it was the actions of one of these that led to a rift between the Inquisition and the Ecclesiarchy which has yet to be closed.{{Fn|1}}
Containing deep catacombs with the remains of many [[Saint]]s as well as ancient religious tomes, the planet became the center of the [[Gallilenus Heresy]].{{Fn|1}}
