XIV’s move to the Apostolic Palace after having resided at the Palazzo del
Sant’Uffizio since the beginning of his pontificate.
Vatican News
On Saturday afternoon, March 14, Pope Leo XIV will take
possession of the apartment in the Apostolic Palace, as he moves, with some of
his closest collaborators, into the rooms used by his predecessors. The news
was confirmed by Matteo Bruni, Director of the Holy See Press Office.
The Pope lived in the Vatican’s Palazzo del Sant’Uffizio,
where he had already resided while serving as Prefect of the Dicastery for
Bishops.
The papal apartment, which has now been renovated, is
located in the Third Loggia of the Apostolic Palace. It includes several rooms,
among them the private study room, where the Pope appears at the window for the
Angelus in St. Peter’s Square, a library, and a small chapel.
On 11 May 2025, Leo XIV removed the seals that had been
placed on the door of the papal apartment in the Apostolic Palace on 21 April,
following the death of Pope Francis, who had chosen to live at Casa Santa
Marta.
The first Pope to reside in these rooms in the Third Loggia
was Saint Pius X (1903–1914).
