What it's like in the church Pope Francis chose as his final resting place

Pope Francis greets participants to the Living Nativity Scene at the Basilica of St. Mary Major on December 14, 2024 in Rome, Italy. He will be laid to rest in the Basilica after his funeral in the Vatican on Saturday.

Pope Francis will be buried in St. Mary Major church, not Saint Peter's Basilica, in a break with tradition.
