Zone1 have you heard of the Holy Robe at Treves in Germany?

my old aunt used to keep a piece of cloth that had touched that rock and so was also holy or blessed in some way 😊👍
.

I have many Third Class relics that have touched first or Second Class relics of Saints and other important things. The true Cross, The Veil of Mary, many others.

I'd love to go to Lourdes to touch one of my important Rosaries to the Grotto.

I buy things like bottles of Holy Oil and Holy Water and Crucifixes and whatnot, and the sellers send me prayer cards that have been touched to relics. I must have about 100 of them.

fun fact ...

there are also pilgrimages to Treves of another sort ...
pilgrimages to the house of Karl Marx 😎
 
That’s actually really interesting! Shows how layered Trier’s history is, I wonder how locals feel about having both the Holy Robe and Marx’s birthplace as attractions.

there also is a third attraction: the Porta Nigra = the Black Gate. From Roman Times. For some time Trier was the Capital of the Western part of the Roman Empire, a second Rome! 😊👍

Rosaries that have been touched to 2nd class relics of Padre Pio, a hand cross that has a tiny scrap of fabric that's been touched to the tomb of Christ, laminated Holy Cards with scraps of fabric that have been touched to the bones of St. Charbel, medals that have scraps of fabric that have been touched to 2nd class relics of St. Jude, St. Anthony, St Dymphna, and a few more I don't remember right now. My favorite is Crucifixes that have been touched to a 2nd class relic of St. Veronica's veil, the veil with the image of the Holy Face of Christ, from the 6th Station of the Cross.

They're inexpensive, because it's illegal to sell relics. If you see a relic for sale for some inflated price, report the seller.

The woman who sells me the Holy Face Crucifixes charges only what the crucifixes cost her, like 2 or 3 dollars. Many of the rosaries and Holy Cards are free.

the Holy Robe reminds me of the Shroud of Turin

Did you know that the blood type, from samples taken from the Shroud, matches the blood type taken from all of the Eucharistic Miracles that have been scientifically studied? AB.
