Description

A tiny fragment from the veil of Saint Ludmila is a piece of very fine batiste. Ludmila prayed sincerely to Christ and brought her grandson, Prince Wenceslas, the patron saint of the Bohemian Kingdom, to faith. But she stood in the way of her power-hungry daughter-in-law Drahomira, who sent two cruel Norsemen to kill her. It is said they did it to her with her own veil while the duchess was praying to God.
