The well preserved corpse of a 16th century Catholic saint has been unveiled to the public.

Many faithful Catholics were left overwhelmed when they saw the 440-year-old body of Saint Teresa of Jesus inside a glass coffin in Spain.

The Discalced Carmelite nun's body was put on display to the public for the first time since 1914 at the Basilica Annunciation of Our Lady of Mount Carmel in Spain's Salamanca province on Sunday, May 11.

While visibly skeletal at a glance, parts of the corpse are said to still be remarkably well preserved.

Several visitors at the Basilica were visibly emotional at the sight of the centuries-old body.

This Catholics and their religion. What use is this corpse in the 21st century. Anywhere, anything that rocks their boat.
