Some relics are very tiny and difficult to see. At any rate, as far as I know, every Catholic church has relics in it somewhere.

Well at least some (most) of them did until John XXIII threw out most of the "saints". That pretty much killed the old relic business.

The most startling one I saw was the head of St. Catherine of Siena in the cathedral there. I leaned over to my wife and said, "I so hope that they have a postcard of this for sale in the gift shop." And indeed they did.
