            Tomb Of Pope Francis At Santa Maria Maggiore Basilica - Rome

            The tomb of late Pope Francis in the basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore in Rome, Italy on April 27, 2025. Pope Francis (1936-2025) wrote in his testament that he wanted to be buried in the left nave of the basilica Santa Maria Maggiore (St Mary Major). ‘I ask that my tomb be prepared in the burial niche in the side aisle between the Pauline Chapel and the Sforza Chapel of the Basilica. The tomb should be in the ground; simple, without particular ornamentation, bearing only the inscription: Franciscus’. Unlike the majority of popes who have been interred beneath St Peter's Basilica, Pope Francis has reportedly made arrangements to be buried at Santa Maria Maggiore in Rome's Esquilino district.
