The original Shroud of Turin is maintained by the Roman Catholic Church in Turin, Italy and is believed by many to be the burial cloth of Jesus Christ.

The Shroud Display is the main feature of Garden Tomb Shroud Center at Believers, and offers an opportunity to view life-sized black & white transparencies taken of the original Shroud that depict, in amazing clarity, details of the crucified man found on the famous Shroud of Turin.

These 4’x 8’ images were made from the original negatives from the photos taken by the 1978 STURP (Shroud of Turin Research Project) team member, Barrie Schwortz.

There are fewer than 10 Shroud Centers in the United States and the Garden Tomb Shroud Center at Believers is the only Shroud Center in Texas.

Come see the incredible and very detailed images of the Shroud, close up at the Garden Tomb Shroud Center, at Believers.
