Founded on 22 January 1506, the Pontifical Swiss Guard has protected the Pope for more than 500 years. Recognized as the world’s oldest continuously serving military unit, they have remained on active duty without interruption since their founding. Behind their iconic Renaissance uniforms are highly trained soldiers dedicated to safeguarding the Pope and Vatican City—a remarkable tradition of loyalty, discipline, and service that continues to this day.

Michelangelo was just 24 years old when he began carving the Pietà, completing it in less than two years. This breathtaking masterpiece portrays the Virgin Mary tenderly holding the body of Jesus after the Crucifixion—a powerful symbol of love, sorrow, and hope. Created for a French cardinal’s funeral chapel, it remains the only work Michelangelo ever signed after hearing others wrongly credit another sculptor. More than 500 years later, it continues to move the hearts of millions. 🤍

The magnificent façade of St. Peter’s Basilica, completed in 1612, is crowned by statues of Jesus Christ, St. John the Baptist, and eleven Apostles, including St. Peter with the keys and St. Paul with the sword—powerful symbols of the Christian faith. At its center is the famous central balcony (Loggia of the Blessings), where a newly elected pope is introduced to the world with the words, “Habemus Papam.” A place rich in history, faith, and tradition.🇻🇦

BREAKING:
Speaking to reporters aboard the papal plane to Algeria on Monday, Pope Leo XIV said:
“I think that the people who read will be able to draw their own conclusions: I am not a politician, I have no intention of entering into a debate with him. Rather, let us always seek peace and put an end to wars. I am not afraid of the Trump administration. I speak about the Gospel, I am not a politician. I do not think the message of the Gospel should be abused in the way some people are doing. I will continue to speak out loudly against war, to try to promote peace, multilateral dialogue between states in order to seek the right solution to problems. The message of the Church is the message of the Gospel, blessed are the peacemakers; I do not see my role as that of a politician, I do not want to enter into a debate with him. Too many people are suffering in the world.”

UPDATE: This is the full and exact quote of Pope Leo, delivered in English to journalists aboard his flight to Algeria.

"I have no fear of neither the Trump administration nor of speaking out loudly about the message of the Gospel. And that’s what I believe I am called to do and what the Church is called to do. We're not politicians. We're not looking to make foreign policy, as he calls it, with the same perspective that he might understand it. But I do believe that the message of the Gospel, “blessed are the peacemakers,” is a message that the world needs to hear today.”
