Jerusalem Pilgrim's Cross 1901
Silver (.800), 20 g. The Jerusalem Pilgrim's Cross is an honour of the Holy See awarded in the name of the Pope as a recognition of merit to pilgrims to the Holy Land. In May 1901, Pope Leo XIII created the religious medal as a way to encourage more faithful to embark on a pilgrimage and to recognize their journey in a special way. The decoration was intended to remind Holy Land pilgrims of the fruits of their pilgrimage, support those living in the Holy Land, and to call more people to Pilgrimage as well.
