SPECIAL NOTE

The Funeral for Pope Francis will air live this Saturday morning, April 26, at 2:00 a.m. Denver time on NBC

Role of the Camerlengo

The Camerlengo is one of only a few major officials of the Roman Curia who does not lose his office while the papacy is vacant. The Camerlengo, whose role is regulated by the 1996 document Universi Dominici Gregis and the 2022 apostolic constitution Praedicate Evangelium, administers Church finances and property during the interregnum.

The Camerlengo is also responsible for notifying the Cardinal Vicar for Rome of the Pope’s death. The Cardinal Vicar then notifies the people of Rome by special announcement. The Camerlengo takes possession of the Apostolic Palace in the Vatican and the Palaces of the Lateran and of Castel Gandolfo and manages their administration. As Pope Francis resided in the Casa Santa Marta in Vatican City and not the Apostolic Palace, the Camerlengo will also be required to take possession and seal those quarters as well for the duration of the Sede Vacante, Latin for the See Being Vacant.
