ITALY-RELIGION-SHROUD

Priests give the eucharist outside the duomo of Turin where the Shroud of Turin is exhibit on April 19, 2015. The Turin Shroud goes on display for the first time in five years today with more than a million people already booked in to view one of Christianity's most celebrated relics. Devotees believe the shroud, which is imprinted with the image of a man who appears to have been crucified, to be the burial cloth of Jesus Christ. Sceptics are just as adamant that it is nothing more than a Medieval forgery which scientists have carbon-dated to around 1300 years after Christ supposedly died on the cross.
