Papal summer residence opens to the public for the first time

A hallway is seen in the papal villa at Castel Gandolfo, Italy, Oct. 21. Private areas of the papal villa are now open to the public. Although many popes over the centuries have spent their summers at Castel Gandolfo, Pope Francis has chosen to remain in Rome.

CASTEL GANDOLFO, Italy – Pope Francis is throwing open the doors to the papal apartment – including the bedroom where popes have slept – in the Apostolic Palace at Castel Gandolfo.
