St. Mary Major

Of the other significant churches we visited was Saint Mary Major.  It had magnificent side altars and ceiling and the main altar was elegant.  One of the side chapels contained the body of Pope St. Pius V.





























The Main Altar.






























Below the main altar was an ornate shire ....














...which contained a piece of Christ's manger.
