If your template file doesn’t have the <?php tag at the top, you should add it.
<?php
/*
Template Name: Exhibition - Pilgrims
*/
…is how the very top of your template file should look.
Your sample should read like this.
<?php
/*
Template Name: Exhibition - Pilgrims
*/
get_header(); ?>
<div class="container fadeIn perimeter">
... [etc]
