Pope Leo XIV is only in office for a few days, but while his coat of arms has already been released, Catholic Christianity still puzzles true and how the Pontifex will stay. Because the apostolic palace is urgently needed to renovate …
Leo’s predecessor, Pope Francis, knew that he rejected luxury and lived instead in a simple room in the Santa Marta pension instead of in the noble apostolic palace.
On Sunday, however, the papal apartment in the Apostolic palace was reopened (see X -contribution below). It is therefore speculated whether the 69-year-old Pope will kick footsteps in Francis and a modest house will be taken.
If he chooses more luxury, he will be spoiled of your choice. There is sufficient space in the building complex in the middle of the Vatican with 1400 rooms and 55,000 square meters of floor space.
The “Palazzo Apostolico” is the official residence of the pope and a beautiful architectural monument of the Catholic Church. The imposing building was built between 1508 and 1519 and for centuries expanded and redesigned.
In addition to the papal apartments, this includes the Sala Regia, the Sala Clementina and the Sixtine Chapel, which is famous for the impressive frescoes of Michelangelo.
Renovation work urgently needed
The pope’s apartment has been uninhabited since Francis’ took office in March 2013. That is why renovation work is now urgently necessary. In recent years, maintenance, which was clearly visible on the outside, reported “Il Messaggero”.
There is a suspicion of water input from the roof. The moisture discovered by the technicians was the subject of various reports to the technical department of the Vatican. Travertin Corns Brummble.
At the end of March, two employees were quickly sent to secure the Simse with a protective network, but only to prevent heavy marble pieces from falling.
