I thought they just found his crypt somewhere in a European church? Vague memory.

St. Nicholas's earthly remains are located in Bari, Italy. Conveniently enough, they are in a crypt within the Basilica of St. Nicholas. I visited there with my new bride in 2000 while on our honeymoon. It's the reason we have a son named Nicholas today.
St. Nicholas was a bishop of Myra in Asia Minor. His remains were spirited to Italy after Myra (and most of the rest of Asia Minor) were conquered by the Muslims.
