The museum - located in Via S. Domenico 28 and in the crypt of the Most Holy Shroud Church – provides full information concerning research on the Shroud from the 16th century to date.
Since 1898, many scientists have been trying to explore the ‘meaning’ of the Shroud in order to disclose its underlying mysteries: scientific investigations culminated in the amazing three-dimensional image of the face of the Man of the Shroud, elaborated by Giovanni Tamburelli and his team in 1978.
A large space is dedicated to further studies: on the material, the micro-traces, the forensic investigations, on the prints of the coins left on the sheet and on the iconographic analysis.

The Museum of the Shroud opens wide its halls after the lockdown due to the emergency of the covid-19 pandemia. Completely sanitized, the premises will welcome small groups - reserved for no more than 7 guests - for exclusive tours, led directly by the director of the museum or by experts from the International Center of Studies on the Shroud.

Groups are invited to book, or writing to the email address [email protected], or via the facebook page of the Shroud and CISS museum.
The request must specify generalities, numbers and references of the partecipants. The groups will be formed by order of arrival of the relevant requests.
