Jubilee, Testimonium for pilgrims available at the InfoPoint

20 December 2024

 During the Holy Year of 2025, pilgrims who go on pilgrimage to the four Holy Doors of Rome (Basilica of St. Peter in the Vatican, Basilica of St. John Lateran, Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore, Basilica of St. Paul Outside the Walls) will receive, on request, an official ‘testimonium’ - a certificate proving they have undertaken a pilgrimage to the Tombs of the Apostles Peter and Paul. The testimonium can be collected at the official Jubilee InfoPoint, located in via della Conciliazione 7, in Rome. This certificate is a testimony of the pilgrim’s spiritual participation in the Jubilee, a year of grace for all men and women in the world.

The testimonium will be personalized by the volunteers at the InfoPoint with the name and surname of the pilgrim, and the date of the pilgrimage. In addition, those who arrive in Rome on pilgrimage by foot or by bike, having traveled one of the many paths towards the eternal city, will be able to receive a special, even more personalized Testimonium.

The official Testimonium of the Jubilee will carry a special watermark, with unique properties, guaranteeing its authenticity and certifying it as an official document of the Jubilee. Thus, each certificate will become a unique and significant memorial of the spiritual journey undertaken.

Pilgrims are asked to apply only for the official Testimonium which can be collected only at the InfoPoint in via della Conciliazione 7. For large groups it is advisable to book the Testimonium in advance by contacting the InfoPoint.
