The Holy Lance, also known as the Lance of Longinus, the Spear of Destiny, or the Holy Spear, is the Lance that pierced the side of Jesus as he hung on the cross during his Crucifixion. The Lance is mentioned in the Gospel of John (19:31–37). At least four major Relics are claimed to be the Holy Spear. This Hofburg Version is a typical Winged Lance of the Carolingian Dynasty and also contains a Nail from Christ's Cross. In 1084, Henry IV had a Silver Band with the inscription "Nail of Our Lord" added to it. Around 1350, Charles IV had a Golden Sleeve put over the Silver one, inscribed: "Lancea Et Clavus Domini" (Lance and Nail of the Lord). In Modern Times This Version of the Holy Spear has been seen in several Movies and TV Shows, such as: Indiana Jones, Hell Boy, Witchblade, Constantine, Expedition Unknown and Many More.
