Is there a website out there that lists the locations of major relics? I am looking for relics that are located in Washington, D.C. I know about the two first-class relics at the Franciscan Monastery and the fragments of relics at the Basilica. I am looking for a bigger list so that I can find out if there are more in this area and other cities I will be traveling to.

Is Philadelphia too far from your route? They have the relics – in fact, the incorrupt body – of S. John Neumann.
 
St. Anthony’s chapel in Pittsburgh has **a lot **of relics
 
I live in DC, will be in Philly later on, and have family from Pittsburgh, so that info is helpful! What I’m looking for is a relic database of sorts.

There is no such thing to my knowledge of a database that exists online where you can look up the locations of the relics of the saints in a particular city/town. The recommendation of the church in Pittsburgh is a good one in that they have thousands of relics of every imaginable saint. I hope one day to visit there.

The only thing even coming close would be the book written by Joan Carroll Cruz called “Relics” but most of the locations of the saints in her book are in Europe.

God bless
