Just finished dinner with some lovely people from Prague, I know and have visited the Bazilika sv. Jakuba - The Basilika of Saint James, in the Old City of Prague what I didn't know is that contained within are relics of Saint James. Poor Saint James, We know that most of him can be found in Santiago de Compostela, his head remains here in Jerusalem with the Armenians in their Սբ. Հակոբոսի տաճար, Երուսաղեմ, that is, theSaint James Cathedral, a bit of his arm in France, and there is a spurious Italian claim for another bit. Can anyone here give me more information concerning the relic? I have met more than a few Czech pilgrims, the Camino Francés is but small change since they have been walking from Prague or from the Church of Saint James the Greater in Brno. Can anyone, Czech or otherwise, give me more information on these churches and the relics, more than can be found through the Wiki-Guru?
