The Medallion of Saint Benedict

One of the most ancient medal designs, the Saint Benedict medallion carries centuries of history. It traces its recognizable cross shape back to the eleventh century during the time of Pope Leo IX. The reverse side features the traditional Latin inscription Vade retro satana, a historical phrase dating back to the 15th century. It is a classic piece that can be collected individually or attached to a traditional rosary.

This traditional medal and crucifix design has been utilized for centuries as a prominent symbol in historical art and culture. Placed in the center of a Celtic cross, the Saint Benedict Medal remains a highly recognizable piece of classical iconography.

This detailed pendant can be worn daily on a chain around the neck, fastened to a decorative rosary, carried in a pocket or purse, or hung as a traditional piece of decor in a car or home.

Rich in tradition, the St. Benedict pendant is often given as a meaningful historical gift for holidays, milestones, or classical collections, allowing the wearer to carry a piece of centuries-old heritage wherever they go.
