Cappella della Sindone

The Chapel of the Holy Shroud (Italian: Cappella della Sacra Sindone) is a Baroque style Roman Catholic chapel in Turin in northern Italy, constructed to house the Shroud of Turin (Sindone di Torino), a religious relic alleged to be the burial shroud of Jesus of Nazareth. It is located adjacent to the Turin Cathedral and connected to the Royal Palace of Turin. The chapel was designed by architect-priest and mathematician Guarino Guarini and built at the end of the 17th century (1668–1694), during the reign of Charles Emmanuel II, Duke of Savoy, and is considered one of the masterpieces of Baroque architecture.
