      I know, isn't it beautiful? It's in the shape of Matthias Church, oddly enough, not the church it's housed in, but a different one across the Danube. I didn't have time to get a picture of the steeple of the reliquary. To see the hand, you have to put a coin in a slot, and it lights up for a moment, then goes out. I had to work fast!
