Who would I need to contact to view the Shroud of Turin when it is shown in 2010?

It has been reported today in a Yahoo! News item ( http://www.christiantoday.com/article/pope.announc... ) that the Shroud of Turin will go on display once again in 2010.

Authentic or not, I would like to view the Shroud when it is displayed. I am interested in knowing the name of an agency or organization that would be helpful to me in acquiring admittance to view the shroud. I would appreciate any information, advice, or suggestions -- especially the name(s) of contacts.

Thank you so much for your time and your suggestions.

Update:

Oh, dear, Martina L.

I do wish I knew some language other than English. I assume this is Italian. I don't find a link to an English version of the site. Thank you, though. You may be onto something here.

Update 2:

Update 3:

New Moon Daughter,

    The last time they displayed the Shroud you had to get a ticket and queue... like a regular museum. The walk from the entrance to the shroud itself went through the Giardini Reali and along the way there was an exhibition about the history of the shroud etc. They're likely to be able to give you info at the Museo della Sindone (Museum of the Shroud): http://www.sindone.it/museo.asp?sm=museo&check=nul...

    that is been proved to be a hoax, from greater or less the eleventh or twelfth centuries. even in spite of the undeniable fact that, even an common look can let us know that. the image exhibits a bearded guy with long hair. yet, that is relatively sparkling interior the NT that men ought to have short hair! men in Jesus' time did no longer have long hair - it substitute into banned. additionally, many, if no longer maximum men have been sparkling shaved then, so, that is completely available that Jesus did too. In face, the earliest pictures of Jesus (2d century pictures interior the catacombs under Rome) practice a guy with short, curly hair, and no beard. The Shroud exhibits the common early Renaissance image of Jesus, and one we nonetheless have at present. So, even without the technologies to coach that is a pretend, an common be attentive to-how of history can practice that that is.
