Historic meeting between popes

Anke van LoyenMarch 23, 2013

It's not very often that two popes get together. In fact the last time was six centuries ago. But now things are different... and Pope Francis today dropped in for lunch with his predecessor. But the two men are very different... and Catholics will be watching closely how they coexist. Benedict has been living at the papal retreat south of Rome since going into retirement.
