Does anybody know the location of Veronica’s Veil? I read that there is a statue of St. Veronica at St. Peter’s Basiclica. An inscription states that the veil is encased within the statue. Somebody else told me it was lost.

Do you know where it is?

I actually heard this same thing. I heard that the statue says the vail is within, but no one knows whether it is.
 
The shroud I heard about, several years ago, on EWTN radio may not have been Veronica’s veil but the shroud which covered the face of Jesus after He died and which St. John found neatly folded in the tomb after the resurrection. There was a program about it, only last week, on The World Over with Raymond Arroyo interviewing the author Janice Bennet about her latest book, “The Shroud of Ovieto”; Ovieto is in Spain.
Here is the cover of the book at Amazon:

Sorry for the confusion.
 
Relic: St. Veronica’s Veil (?)
Where: Carthusian Monastery, Monoppello, Italy. If this is the true Veil of Vernoica, the history goes like this: the veil had been kept at St. Peter’s Basilica, Rome, Italy (there is a niche for it near the statue of St. Veronica there), but was removed from there when St. Peter’s was being rebuilt, and taken to this monastery in A.D. 1608. There is either a copy of the veil at the Vatican today in the aforementioned niche, or the one at the Vatican is the original (all other copies of the Veil were prohibited by Pope Paul V in 1616).

The site is here. Scroll down to the section on Italy, and you will find my quote from above.

Peace
 
The Italian film scientist Vincenzo Ruello has just authenticated the Veronica Veill at St Peters. There are clips on the net showing the negative photographic face of Jesus Christ just before the crucifiction. This has just happened this year and the whole world of Christianity is now waiting for a papal announcement
