Pope Francis Receives The Swiss Guards - Vatican

Pope Francis receives in audience the Swiss Guards on May 6, 2024 in the Clementine Hall at the Vatican, as they prepare for the traditional swearing-in ceremony of the new recruits which takes place every year on May 6. The day marks the anniversary of the heroic sacrifice of 147 Swiss Guards who died while defending Pope Clement VII during the Sack of Rome in 1527 by the landsknechts, the German mercenaries of the Holy Roman Emperor Charles V.
