Art, culture and hope: Holy Year 2025 in the Vatican unfolds beauty!

Vatikanstadt, Italien - The Vatican is preparing for an extraordinary holy year, which will be celebrated from February 15th to 17th, 2025. During this time, the Via della Conciliazionione portraits of prisoners of the Chinese painter Yan Pei-Ming are projected on a house facade. This art campaign should be part of an exhibition that will be shown in a newly opened room near the Vatican. The Vatican Cultural Authority emphasizes that art and culture should serve as central tools for dialogue and hope, as reports.

During the Holy Year it is expected that visitors can experience art and culture in the Vatican in large numbers. Numerous artistic events were announced in advance. Among other things, an important exhibition with works by Raffael and Domenico Ghirlandaio is opened in the papal residence in Castel Gandolfo. The Vatican Museum Director Barbara Jatta has also pointed out that remarkable collections from the Vatican Museums are presented during the anniversary to emphasize the cultural dimension of the Holy Year, such as domradio.de shown.

The Holy Year will not only include religious events, but also cultural highlights such as the White Night in St. Peter's Basilica and an international artist summit. Pope Francis will be the first Pope to visit the Italian film city of Cinecittà to promote exchange with artists. The year is officially opened on Christmas Eve, which laid the foundation for a number of other cultural and spiritual events that are supposed to attract numerous visitors.
