About this episode

This episode features interesting facts about St. Peter's Basilica.

In place of an interview segment this weekend on Vatican Insider, I’ve prepared a Special – a fact-filled, fun-filled feature I’m calling DID YOU KNOW THAT …? I’m going to focus on some interesting tidbits about St. Peter’s Basilica. We’ll look at the basilica’s dome, bronze markings on its floor and a statue of the apostle, saint and pope for whom the church is named. Join me!
