Episode Details

Pope Leo the Fourteenth has arrived at Castel Gandolfo for a six-week summer retreat — a first for his papacy and a return to tradition after Pope Francis never used the papal getaway. At 69, the Chicago-born pontiff is taking a well-earned break, hoping to recharge before tackling looming challenges. The historic estate, once a favorite of rulers and now home to farms, gardens, and an observatory, offers more than just cool air — locals hope he’ll also pen major church documents from Villa Barberini, reviving a legacy of papal work in the serene setting.
