Description
Tuesday 4/22/25 The Vatican has announced that Francis's funeral will take place this Saturday at 10 a.m. in St. Peter's Square, an event expected to draw tens of thousands of mourners from around the world. This timing follows the traditional Catholic practice of holding papal funerals four to six days after death, similar to Pope Emeritus BenedictI's funeral which occurred five days after his passing in 2023.
Following tradition, Vatican officials have sealed both the papal apartments in the Apostolic Palace and Francis's modest living quarters at Casa Santa Marta, the Vatican guest house where he chose to reside throughout his papacy, rejecting the more ornate papal accommodations. New video footage shows the ceremonial sealing of these spaces with red ribbon and wax. Cardinal Kevin Farrell, serving as camerlengo, personally tested the doors to ensure they were properly locked as part of the ancient rituals following a pope's death.
The Vatican News reported that the rite confirming the death and the placement of Pope Francis's body in the coffin took place on Monday in the chapel of the Casa Santa Marta in Vatican City. Images released by the Vatican showed Francis in an open coffin, dressed in red and white vestments and holding a rosary. On Wednesday, the coffin will be taken in a procession to St. Peter's Basilica to lie in state for about three days, with mourners allowed to visit and pay tribute.
