Museo della Sindone (Shroud Museum), Turin

Museo della Sindone (Shroud Museum), founded in 1936 by the Confraternity of the Holy Shroud, is a museum located in Turin. In it are exhibited artifacts, documents, images relating to the history of the Sacred Linen, as well as a good documentation relating to the scientific research carried out on it. An image of the shroud in the form of a hologram is also exhibited, which highlights its particular three-dimensional structure, discovered by Jackson and Jumper in 1978 and independently confirmed, with different techniques, by Giovanni Tamburelli from Turinin the same year.

In 1998 it was moved to its current location, the crypt of the church of the Holy Sudario , built between 1734 and 1764 by the aforementioned confraternity. The sacred building can be visited following a visit to the museum, and there you can find a singular set of works dedicated to the Shroud.

The museum houses, among the most valuable works, the precious box in which the Shroud cloth was kept from the 16th century until 1998.
