The Shroud of Turin is the most analyzed artifact in the world yet remains a mystery. The 14-foot long linen cloth that has been in Turin Italy for over 400 years and bears the faint front and back image of a 5’10” bearded, crucified man with apparent wounds and bloodstains that match the crucifixion account as recorded in the Bible. Millions of people over the centuries have believed it to be the actual burial shroud of Jesus of Nazareth. The historical trail of the Shroud trails back through Italy, France, Asia Minor (modern day Turkey) and may have originated in the Middle East according to botanical evidence.
Archbishop Stefan has procured an official replica of the Shroud of Turin for display at our Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception, 830 N. Franklin Street, Philadelphia, PA.
The 14' X 3' Shroud replica will be on exhibition at the Cathedral from February 21, 2010 - June 29th, 2010.
