Franciscans relics

Relic of the Capuchin Franciscan Saints
Whenever you visit the historic church, you may notice a showcase of artistic and historic value in the vestibule.There are old photos, some vestments, chalices, crucifixes and others. You will also see two relics which contain the fragments of bones or clothing of some of the Franciscan saints who have lived in years past. These photos here show the relics in case. There is also another relic of St Francis of Assisi and St Clare, and I'll show this one to you on another day.
