The exposition of the Shroud interests the whole Christian community of Turin, as the host, and the Church in pilgrimage. We present a pastoral itinerary focused upon contemplation of the image impressed on the Shroud's linen, a path which isn't limited to the period of the exposition.
 
The publich speech given by the Pope John-Paul II during his visit to the previous exposition (on May 24, 1998) provides additional, precious insight on this subject.
