St Thomas Aquinas (1225-1274) is commemorated worldwide for three years. In 2023 it was 700 years since his canonisation, in 2024 it was 750 years since his birth and this year we celebrate his 800th year of birth. As part of these celebrations, his relics travel all over the world. These involve a very special relic: the skull of Thomas.
