The Vatican is hosting an exhibition dedicated to the popemobiles, with a selection of vehicles used by popes since 1930. The display retraces nearly a century of change, showing how these vehicles moved from simple adapted cars to increasingly recognizable and protected machines.

For Italian readers, it is a curious way to follow automotive history through the Church as well: not just transportation, but image, protocol and safety. The exhibition includes models that reflect different eras and the relationship between technology and ceremony.
