Pope Gifts Two Fragments From The Cross Jesus Christ Was Crucified On To King Charles
The King's coronation procession will be led by a cross that includes religious relics gifted to the monarch by the Pope.
Two shards of the True Cross – which is said to have been used in the crucifixion of Jesus Christ – were given to Charles by Pope Francis to mark his enthronement.
The small fragments have been incorporated into the Cross of Wales, which will be seen by millions as it is carried into Westminster Abbey on May 6.
