Pope Francis breaks tradition, opting for a simple tomb in Rome's Santa Maria Maggiore Basilica.
Pope Francis chose to be buried in the Basilica di Santa Maria Maggiore in Rome, rather than the Vatican Grottoes, breaking with tradition.
His will requests a simple tomb inscribed only with "Franciscus."
The basilica, known for its Marian icon Salus Populi Romani, was a place of special significance where Pope Francis often visited to pray, especially before and after trips abroad.
This decision reflects his lifelong commitment to humility and simplicity.
