Small reliquary theca with relic of St. Archangel Michael's Sanctuary of Monte Sant'Angelo sul Gargano

Small oval glass-fronted silver reliquary theca housing a pebble relic of Sanctuary of Monte Sant'Angelo sul Garganoa, the holy shrine dedicated to the Archangel Michael. The relic is affixed to a silk ground and identified in Latin on a manuscript cedula label as S. Michael: a Sa. (Sanctuary of St. Michael). On the back, under a protective cap, the theca is secured with a perfectly-preserved seal of red Spanish wax bearing an imprint of a coat of arms of Monsignor Costantino Patrizi Naro (†1876), Dean of the College of Cardinals and the Vicar General of the Roman Curia (1841-1876). 

Sanctuary of Monte Sant'Angelo sul Gargano the oldest shrine in Western Europe dedicated to the Archangel Michael that has been an important pilgrimage site since the early Middle Ages. According to tradition, around the year 490 the Archangel Michael appeared several times to the Bishop of Sipontum near a cave in the mountains, instructing that the cave be dedicated to Christian worship and promising protection of the nearby town of Sipontum from pagan invaders. These apparitions are also the first appearances of Saint Michael in western Europe. Monte Sant'Angelo was a popular pilgrimage site on the way the way to Jerusalem; pilgrims traveled from as far as the British Isles to visit the “Celestial Basilica”. Among the pilgrims who visited the Saint Michael Archangel Sanctuary were many popes (Gelasius I, Leo IX, Urban II, Alexander III, Gregory X, Celestine V, John XXIII as Cardinal, John Paul II), saints (Bridget of Sweden, Bernard of Clairvaux, Thomas Aquinas) emperors, kings and princes (Louis II of Italy, Otto III, Henry II, Matilda of Tuscany, Charles I of Naples, Ferdinand II of Aragon). Francis of Assisi also visited the Sanctuary, but, feeling unworthy to enter the grotto, stopped in prayer and meditation at the entrance, kissed a stone, and carved on it the sign of the cross in the form “T” (tau).
