CWN Editor's Note: The massive baldacchino over the main altar of St. Peter’s basilica will be unveiled on October 27, at the completion of a 10-month restoration project.
The Bernini-designed canopy that towers over the altar has been surrounded by scaffolding this year. The unveiling of the restored baldacchino will take place at a Mass marking the conclusion of the Synod on Synodality.
