Chapel of the Holy Blood

In the middle ages a crusader brought a vial of Christ's Blood back to Brugge where it is housed in the Chapel of the Holy Blood. It is frequently taken out of it's reliquary to be visualized and you can touch the cover and pray.

I am so glad you got to see the process, too. Maybe they do it more often than you thought. I was so glad I was there to see the "Holy Blood". If it's true, what an amazing article to have. All I know is I felt a lot of love in that place. It's a good place to go sit and soak up the goodness of God.
