Bell TowerI have a video to share tomorrow of the bells ringing!
Part of an archaeological dig!
Cathedral of St. John the BaptistThis is where the Shroud of Turin is housed
Main Door
Quick video inside the Cathedral.
Confessionals
This is where the shroud is kept. For some reason you can take photographs everywhere except of the box holding the shroud itself. This is as close as I could get.
This is a replica of the Last Supper. The original is in Florence.
It's still quite stunning!
This video was on a loop and I took several photographs.
Tombs of clegymen

What an amazing adventure, Jeannie! Makes me want to go there NOW!
Love the pictures. I was figuring you couldn't take pictures of the shroud. Too much light or some nonsense like that LOL. Wonderful idea using the video tho. I love old churches as well. They built those things to last! How cool to see a dig going on while you visited. Wonder what they have found?
Wow! What an ornate and elaborate church! I figured you might not be able to see the actual shroud but they had a nice video to watch, at least. Cool! :)
I find discussion of the Shroud to be most interesting.
I've always been drawn to stories and photos of the Shroud of Turin. This is a beautiful cathedral. I'm amazed at the architecture back then, and I often wonder how they built such beauty with so little. I wish I could visit the Cathedral of St. John the Baptist. I think I'd be awestruck for hours and hours.
Thanks for sharing all of your pictures, Jeannie.
