The Holy Shroud of Turin — a linen cloth said to have been placed on Jesus at the time of his burial — will be on display at the Cathedral of St. John the Baptist in Turin, Italy, from April 10-May 23, 2010.
The cloth moved around Europe until it arrived in Turin in 1578.
Since 1983 it’s gone on several displays.
More than 2 million visitors are expected in Turin.
Visit the cathedral's Web site to prebook a visit beginning in December.
