This article is about an Easter egg.

This article covers an Easter egg that appeared in an official Star Wars canon source, but may not be considered part of canon continuity.

The Holy Grail[2] was a chalice owned by the Chiss Grand Admiral Thrawn in 2 BBY. It was stored in his office aboard the Chimaera.[1]

Behind the scenes

In real world theology, the Holy Grail was the cup used by Jesus Christ during the Last Supper. The Holy Grail's appearance in Star Wars Rebels was a reference to the 1989 film Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, in which the Holy Grail was featured as the MacGuffin.[2]
