    Volto Santo di Manoppello. Shroud of Manopello - one of the most famous Christian relics (next to the Shroud of Turin) located in the local Sanctuary. The fabric is immortalized with an image believed to be the face of Jesus Christ. The place is visited by thousands of pilgrims every year.

    Santuario Del Volto Santo in Manoppello. For four centuries, the Sanctuary of the Holy Face has been the destination of pilgrimages from Italy and around the world. In the presbytery of the local church of the Capuchin Fathers, a fabric (17 x 24.5 cm) called the Holy Face (Volto Santo) has been kept since 1638. The relic placed in the monstrance, framed in a decorative walnut wood frame glazed on both sides, presents the face of Jesus Christ. Petrarch called Manopello "Little Jerusalem." Manoppello means "hand full of grain" and Betlehem (Bethlehem) is Hebrew for "house of bread."
