That was the first relic recovered by the First Crusade in their first action in the ME. It also was lost shortly thereafter.

And can now be seen free of charge on weekdays at the Hofsburg Treasure House in Vienna (where hopefully, the Raellians will never get their hands on it; assuming any DNA could ever be extracted), after it was returned by General Eisenhower over the objections of Patton after WWII.

St. Louis bought from Latin Constantinople the crown, cross, spear, robe, sponge, and shroud in 1240. Where are they now?
