In the words of Pope Leo,

​

“Religious experience is an essential dimension of the human person. Without it, it is difficult, if not impossible, to bring about the purification of the heart necessary for building peaceful relationships.”

Chair of St Peter Restoration

In preparation for the 2025 Jubilee Year of Hope, the Knights of Columbus sponsored a year-long restoration of Bernini’s monumental Chair of St. Peter in the apse of St. Peter’s Basilica. This daring and intricate effort revived the luminous majesty of the towering, gilded throne, originally crafted by Gian Lorenzo Bernini under Pope Alexander VII. Enshrined within the masterpiece is a revered relic—an ancient wooden chair long honored as a symbol of apostolic authority.
