Expert unpacks – secret files: this happens when the pope dies

Date:

Three soft hammer blows to the head, a broken fisherman’s ring, embalming for eternity, television images only by the grace of the Vatican – when the pope dies, it sets off a multitude of strange rituals and processes. A pope expert told the “crown” what happens when the head of the Catholic Church dies.

There is no doubt that the death of Christ’s representative on earth today is a special religious, political and media event. This was no different in the past, says René Schlott of the Center for Contemporary History Potsdam in the interview “Krone”. The historian received his PhD on the subject of ‘Pope’s death as a media event’ and is considered a proven Vatican expert.
