Proposals for papal visits by Pope Leo XIV

Overview

Catholic leaders have begun expressing interest in hosting Pope Leo XIV for significant religious anniversaries in 2028.

In the Czech Republic, Archbishop Stanislav Přibyl suggested a potential visit in 2028 or 2029 to coincide with the 400th anniversary of the gift of the Infant Jesus of Prague statue. The Archbishop noted that both political and church leadership would welcome the visit, marking the first papal trip to the country since 2009.

In Italy, Archbishop Fortunato Morrone has expressed his intention to invite the Pope to Reggio Calabria to participate in the 2028 centenary of the consecration of the city’s Cathedral. The Duomo, reconstructed after the 1908 earthquake, serves as a symbol of the city’s identity.
