Using surround sound and images, including on the floor, the first room introduces the visitor to the person of Jesus Christ through presentation of 12 stories from his life, but each one is selected to show Christ\u2019s connection to the supernatural (e.g. the Transfiguration).\u00a0The next introduces the visitor to the shroud itself, including proof of its authenticity and what it tells us about the sufferings of Christ.\u00a0The third is devoted to the Resurrection leading the viewer to ponder a pointed question: Who do you believe the man on the shroud is?<\/p>\n<p>The third theater exits into the museum area, which includes displays of reproductions of items that were part of the passion of Christ, including a flagellum (whip), the crown of thorns and nails, as well as a reproduction of what the tomb of Christ might have looked like.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"mx-auto\"><figcaption class=\"caption text-muted\">The new Shroud of Turin museum uses AI and 360-degree tech to explore Christ\u2019s life and resurrection.
