What's included

Itinerary

1. 1

   Palazzo Reale Di Torino

   55min

   The seat of the Dukes of Savoy and later of the Kings of Sardinia and then of Italy, from which the Albertine Statute was promulgated, which houses the Royal Armory and the Chapel of the Holy Shroud.

2. 2

   Cappella della Sacra Sindone

   15min

   The Chapel of the Holy Shroud designed by Guarino Guarini and completed in 1683, destroyed by a terrible fire in 1997, is directly connected to the Royal Palace with an access corridor and offers a view of the Cathedral where the Holy Shroud is kept in the dark in a case in a controlled environment and atmosphere. The Shroud is therefore NOT visible, but it is possible, if requested and during the opening hours of the Turin Cathedral, to add a visit to the Cathedral and gather in prayer near the Shroud.

3. 3

   Stop 3

   15min

   On request it is possible to include in the total duration of the tour a visit to the Cathedral of Turin, with a passage to the Chapel where today the Holy Shroud is housed (kept in a sealed case, in the dark, in a protected environment and resistant to any natural event, it is not visible)
