From The Daily Mail:
Pope Francis has turned a spectacular 19th century palace next to the Vatican into a shelter for the homeless.
The Palazzo Migliori was set to be turned into a luxury hotel after it became vacant last year and could have charged top rates with its prime location just off St Peter’s Square. But on the Pope’s orders, it has opened its doors to the homeless as a place where they can ‘sleep, eat and learn’ and has been dubbed ‘A Palace for the Poor’.
