Worship of the saints was a central belief of the medieval church. But not all saints had equal importance. The appeal of some was universal and they were revered right across Christendom. Usually established very early on they were often figures from the Bible such as Saint John the Baptist or Saint Paul who were martyred during Roman rule. But at the opposite end of the scale were also the little-known saints connected to local cults. Let us travel back in time and take a look at some saint worshippers who were at odds with one another, the martyred and murdered children and the strange relics that were all part of the Medieval Cult of Saints. Welcome to Medieval Madness.
