Pope Leo XIV Visits the Shrine of Our Lady of Grace at Mentorella - Vatican

Pope Leo XIV made a private visit to the Shrine of Our Lady of Grace at Mentorella ( Santuario Madonna delle Grazie alla Mentorella) in the village of Guadangolo, 65 km south of Rome, Italy on August 19, 2025. After dedicating time to prayer, the Holy Father spent time with the Polish Resurrectionist religious who serve at the sanctuary before returning to the papal residence at Castel Gandolfo. Mentorella sits on top of a mountain. It holds a special connection to several pontiffs: Pope John Paul II, just nine days after being elected pope, made a pilgrimage to the Shrine. Pope Benedict XVI also visited the sanctuary in 2005, and Pope Innocent XIII (1721-1724) had requested his heart to be buried there. Tradition holds it was the place where St. Eustachius converted in the 2nd century. Two hundred years later, Emperor Constantine built a basilica on the spot where the saint converted, and it was consecrated by Pope Silvester I in the years before 335.

Pope Leo XIV Visits Vatican’s Astronomical Observatory - Ital

Pope Leo XIV visits the Vatican’s Astronomical Observatory (or Specola Vaticana) in Castel Gandolfo, near Rome, Italy, where he is on holidays on July 20, 2025. The Specola Vaticana can be considered one of the oldest astronomical observatories in the world. Its origins date back to the second half of the 16th century, when Pope Gregory XIII had the Tower of Winds built in the Vatican in 1578, and invited Jesuit astronomers and mathematicians of the Roman College to prepare a reform of the calendar, which had been promulgated in 1582. Since then, with significant continuity, the Holy See has never stopped showing an interest in and supporting astronomical research. Pius XI thus ordered that the Specola be transferred to his summer residence at Castel Gandolfo on the Alban Hills, some 25 kilometres south of Rome. In that environment so rich in history, a modern Observatory was re-founded and entrusted to Jesuits in 1935. It was equipped with three new telescopes and a laboratory for astrophysics, capable of sp

Pope Leo XIV Visits Vatican’s Astronomical Observatory - Ital

Pope Leo XIV visits the Vatican’s Astronomical Observatory (or Specola Vaticana) in Castel Gandolfo, near Rome, Italy, where he is on holidays on July 20, 2025. The Specola Vaticana can be considered one of the oldest astronomical observatories in the world. Its origins date back to the second half of the 16th century, when Pope Gregory XIII had the Tower of Winds built in the Vatican in 1578, and invited Jesuit astronomers and mathematicians of the Roman College to prepare a reform of the calendar, which had been promulgated in 1582. Since then, with significant continuity, the Holy See has never stopped showing an interest in and supporting astronomical research. Pius XI thus ordered that the Specola be transferred to his summer residence at Castel Gandolfo on the Alban Hills, some 25 kilometres south of Rome. In that environment so rich in history, a modern Observatory was re-founded and entrusted to Jesuits in 1935. It was equipped with three new telescopes and a laboratory for astrophysics, capable of sp
