Relics that are claimed to be the Holy Nails with which Jesus was Crucified are objects of veneration among some Christians, particularly Roman Catholics and the Eastern Orthodox. It is not clear whether Christ was Crucified with 3 or 4 Nails. The belief that 3 Nails were used is called Triclavianism. Helena, the mother of Constantine the Great, discovered the True Cross and Many other Relics in Jerusalem in the 4th century AD. She resided in Trier, Germany at this time and gave the church many Artifacts including the Holy Nail. In the late 10th century, under archbishop Egbert Fabulous Reliquaries for these Relics were created. To this day the items remain inside the Trier Cathedral Treasury. The museum is owned by the Roman Catholic Church and is located inside the Cathedral of Trier. Notable Items besides the Holy Nail Reliquary on Display are: St. Andrew’s Gold Plated Foot containing the Sole of his Sandal, St. Peter (some Beard Hair and part of his Chain), the Cup of Saint Helena, the Silver Arm Reliquary of St. Anne, The Seamless Robe of Jesus ( Holy Tunic) is the robe said to have been worn by Jesus during or shortly before his crucifixion and many other Holy Artifacts.
The location of Jesus' Crucifixion was Golgotha, (Aramaic: “Skull”) (from Latin calva: “Bald Head” or “Skull”), a Skull Shaped Hill in Ancient Jerusalem. It is referred to in all four Gospels (Matthew 27:33, Mark 15:22, Luke 23:33, and John 19:17). The Church of the Holy Sepulchre, also known as the Church of the Resurrection, is a fourth-century church in the Christian Quarter of the Old City of Jerusalem and is believed to be Built on this Site where Jesus was Originally Crucified and Buried. It is considered to be the Holiest Site for Christians in the World, as it has been the most important Pilgrimage Site for Christianity since the fourth century.
