JERUSALEM (RNS) The Israel Museum will reopen the Shrine of the Book, the wing that houses the Dead Sea Scrolls, on June 7 after a year-long renovation.

The restored Shrine will display, among other things, eight of the most complete Scrolls discovered, as well as the Aleppo Codex, which dates to the 10th century.

Built in 1965 specifically to preserve and display the fragile ancient scrolls, the Shrine of the Book is one of Israel’s most unique structures. It is round, with a distinctive dome designed to evoke the lid of the jars in which the scrolls were discovered.
