The chapel of St. John the Merciful, serves as a mausoleum, from the first half of the 18th century. The body of St. John the Merciful is inside the container hanging just above the heads of the large angels. It is constructed of gold. St. John was the patriarch of Alexandria. He increased the number of churches in Alexandria from 7 to 70, and was known for his kindness to the poor. When the Persians occupied Alexandria and he fled to Cyprus, his native country, where he died (somewhere between 616 and 620). His body was moved to Constantinople, then in 1249 to Venice. His body was later moved to St. Martin’s, sometime after 1526, by Queen Mary. |
