| Notes | This shrine contains relics not of St. Luke, but of St. Innocentius. The relics were given to the painters guild "Zum Riesen" by Father Raphael Schächtlein, guardian of Freiburg's Capuchin cloister. On a trip to Rome in 1650, Schächtlein acquired the complete body of the martyr Alexander and other relics from what was supposedly a newly opened catacomb, and he distributed them among Freiburg's twelve guilds. An original shrine with the relics of St. Innocentius was first carried through the streets of Freiburg at the Corpus Christi procession of 1653. A century later, when the shrine was so worn out that it had to be replaced, the guild chose to depict Luke, the portraitist of Mary and hence the patron saint of painters.

Further information on the reliquary shrines of Freiburg's guilds appears in the Badische Zeitung. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
