Vatican Confusion! Please Help!

Posted by: Melissa on Aug 5, 02 at 07:14 PM Posted in: Europe Tagged: Jump to last reply

Hello all-
I am heading off to Italy in just a few weeks. A few months ago, I sent a letter requesting Papal audience tickets for September 11th, 2002. I received a letter from the Vatican stating I could pick up my tickets for the mass at the Bronze Door on the day of the audience. I automatically assumed that the mass would be in St. Peter's Square.

However, as I have been trying to secure a guided tour for that same day, one of the companys stated that the Pope would not be in Vatican City but instead at his summer residence.

So, where can I go for reliable info regarding this?
And if the audience is indeed in Castelgandolfo, how the heck do I get there?

Thanks in advance for any advice-
Melissa
