Doctor of the Church
When his body was exhumed 30 years later, all that remained intact were his bottom jawbone and tongue, which are still on display today. In 2013, theologians and researchers at The University of St. Anthony of Padua’s Anthropology Museum worked with a 3D designer from the University of Sao Paolo to reconstruct Saint Anthony's face. In 1946, Pope Pius XII proclaimed him "Doctor of the Church."
