100,000 Line Up to See a Saint’s Skull

Imagine waiting over a century for a glimpse of a saint’s skull! Nearly 100,000 people just flocked to a tiny Spanish town to see Saint Teresa of Ávila’s remains—440 years after she died. Her skull (dressed up in a nun’s habit!) was on display for the first time since 1914, and people were moved to tears. Some even joked online about the whole scene being a little macabre, but for many, it was a once-in-a-lifetime spiritual moment. #SaintTeresa #Spain #Catholic #Culture
