The Holy Myrrhbearers Cathedral holds on to a shrine with the relics of St. Bartholomew the Apostle, who is believed to have been crucified near the Maiden Tower in what is now downtown Baku, Azerbaijan.
It named for Saint Bartholomew the Apostle (Bartholomäus in German), patron of alpine farmers and dairymen.
