Francis, who took his name after Saint Francis of Assisi, was known for his outreach to the poor and those in poverty and that will be reflected in his minimalist burial at Saint Mary Major. He is the first pope to be buried outside the Vatican in over a century and the first to be buried at Santa Maria Maggiore in more than 300 years.

Hundreds of thousands of people gathered Saturday for the funeral Mass of Pope Francis in St. Peter’s Square. World leaders and Catholic faithful bade farewell in a funeral Saturday reflecting Francis’ priorities as pope and wishes as pastor.
