Touring Shroud of Turin

It is the only Renaissance church in the entire capital and also for this reason it deserves a thorough visit.

The church was consecrated in 1505 and during the 1600s expansion works were carried out, with the construction of a chapel that had a very specific purpose.

It was to contain and guard the Holy Shroud which was brought to Turin by the Savoys.

The chapel, a work of Guarino Guarini, was embellished in the center by an altar with a silver and glass case, which contained the sacred sheet inside.

After the fire that hit the church in April 1997, greater protective measures were taken to safeguard the Holy Shroud.

To visit only the Chapel of the Shroud for free, you will need to enter the cathedral chapel from Via dei Partigiani, booking the visit and arriving at least 15 minutes before the booking time.
