Vatican ceremony prepared Holy Door for reopening at St. Peter's Basilica ahead of 2025 Jubilee.
The traditional rite of "recognitio" took place at St. Peter's Basilica on December 2 to verify the Holy Door's integrity before reopening it for the 2025 Jubilee.
The ceremony involved demolishing the wall sealing the door and removing a metal box containing the key for opening it on December 24, along with historical documents and medals from Pope Francis, Benedict XVI, and John Paul II.
Similar ceremonies were held at St. John Lateran, St. Paul Outside the Walls, and St. Mary Major basilicas.
