Catholics certainly do have the saintly relics thing, and it is or was big business for them which is why you get the various fakes here there and everywhere as relics were traded between churches thus giving a new income stream from pilgrims. Of course the old site wouldn't want to give up the income stream so replacement relics were inserted into the shrines.
Personally this is one of the things that promotes Catholic and Orthodox churches over any form of protestantism as they are far more picturesque and architecturally interesting.
Protestant churches can all be bulldozed as eyesores by comparison.
