Rome's mighty Pantheon...


Jesus Christ, Lord of History.

Once a pagan temple where even the emperor offered sacrifice, today a collegiate basilica where the true Sacrifice is offered.

Is the True Mass (Tridentine Latin Mass) ever offered at the Pantheon?

I've seen a procession of the Canons of the Pantheon on television recently. THey seem to be the only church in Rome where the Canons still wear their version of the "cappa magna".

The Canons of St.Peter's had the same vesture, but seem to have dropped it, unfortunatly.

One of my absolute favorite Churches in Rome.

It was great to see this. I concelebrated Mass here when I was in Rome on the 10th of January which was the anniversary of the death of Vittore Emmanuele. The priest wore his biretta! Ciao, don Jeffry

I wish the atmosphere was reverent... the tourist hordes are truly appaling. Somethings should be done.
