Unlocking History: Behind the Doors of the Vatican Museums | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

The Vatican Museums house some of the world’s most important art collections and also play a vital role in electing the pope and renewing the Catholic faith. The Head Custodian is one of the few privileged keepers of the 2,797 keys that unlock the museum’s doors and windows, including the special key for the Sistine Chapel. He shares his experience participating in sealing the Sistine Chapel doors during the papal conclave and speaks to the honor of that responsibility. Attracting nearly 7 million pilgrims and tourists last year, the Vatican Museums are not only a testament to artistic beauty but also a living symbol of history and faith.
