Description
A copy of a 15th-century pilgrimage sign from Mon-Saint-Michel, the island stronghold that still serves as a shrine to the archangel who “loves high places.”
St Michael was venerated as the patron of military and chivalric orders and was called upon as an intercessor for the dying. He is now the patron saint of police officers, paramedics and the military.
His feast day is Sept. 29.
