Vatican Confirms Three Trips for Leo XIV

The Holy See has confirmed today three international trips for Pope Leo XIV, putting to rest months of speculation.
He will begin with a one-day visit to the Monaco on March 28, marking the Principality’s first modern papal visit.
From April 13 to 23, Leo XIV will embark on a ten-day journey across Africa, visiting Algeria, Cameroon, Angola, and Equatorial Guinea. The visit to Algeria will trace the footsteps of St. Augustine, while stops in Cameroo, Angola and Equatorial Guinea will emphasize peace. The journey recalls the historic 1985 African trip of John Paul II.
From June 6 to 12, the Pope will travel to Spain, visiting Madrid and Barcelona. In Barcelona, he will inaugurate the new and tallest tower of the iconic Sagrada Família, designed by Antoni Gaudí. The visit will also include the Canary Islands - Tenerife and Gran Canaria - a key migration route between Africa and Europe.
