In Rome, the wax-enhanced skeletal remains of the martyr are displayed in a glass case.

Rome is one of the most macabre destinations in the world due to the Catholic Church's habit of displaying relics of its saints. The Santa Maria della Vittoria is isn't merely special because it has artifacts from these holy figures, but instead, its greatest asset is that it houses the full corpse of an “incorruptible saint” - Saint Victoria - which can be seen in a glass case. This is a remarkable experience rarely found around Rome.
