Here is the tombstone project of Pope Francis. < img src = "https://zycie.news/crrops/478097/620x0/1/0/2025/03/17/rpmh63ujbufbhc10sml0qdzivo55p0lskvznkt4m.jpg" alt = "Pope Francis, screen youtube @vatican News" styles = "background-color: rgba (157,119.88.0.53)" > < p > On Saturday, the body of Pope Francis will be placed in the Basilica of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Rome & Amp; Ndash; The place that through his pontificate was a spiritual marina for him throughout his pontificate. The design of his tombstone has just been presented. Simple, almost ascetic in form, perfectly reflects the character and spirit of the Holy Father.
< P >The tombstone, made of Ligurian marble, will be extremely modest. There will be only one word on the album: & ampquo; franciscus & rdquo; and the image of the pectoral cross. This is no case & ndash; This designation was chosen by Francis, while still in his lifetime, writing his wish in a will. No title & oacute; w, no dates, no additional inscriptions. Only the name and sign of his faith. This is the last gesture of the pope's humility, which for years of his pontificate taught the simplicity of his pontificate, ub & oacute; staff of the heart and closeness to people.< p > The tombstone will be placed in the ground, just below the basilica floor, according to the will of the deceased. Only the stone plate will be visible & ndash; Without monumental tombstones & oacute; in, without unnecessary decorations & oacute; b. This was his whole mission & ndash; Keep bones & oacute; to what is authentic, simple and deeply rooted in the Gospel. < p > gr & Franciszek will be in the lateral nave of the basilica, in the niche between the Pauline chapel, in which icon Salus Populi Romani is located, and the chapel of Sforz & oacute; w is located. This place is not accidental. Pope Francis gave the icon of the Mother of God “Salvation of the Roman people” with great reverence. He prayed before her before each Apostolic Oacute; and immediately after returning, entrusting Mary with bones & oacute; and all humanity. His last prayer before Salus Populi Romani took place at the beginning of this year's Holy Week & Amp; Ndash; as if he sensed, that the time of his departure was approaching.
< p > The faithful will be able to haunt the gr & Oacute; B from Sunday, April 27. For many, it will not only be a place of prayer, but also a reminder of the message of his pontificate & ndash; to seek God in simplicity, rejecting PR & oacute; and empty splendor.
< p > This tombstone, although so inconspicuous, will become a symbol of the greatest strength of Pope Francis & Amp; Ndash; forces hidden in the silence of the heart, which & oacute; Re remained faithful to the Gospel.
