Basilicas of Saints Peter and Paul St. Peter’s is probably the most famous church in Christendom.
Massive in scale and a veritable museum of art and architecture, it
began on a much humbler scale. Vatican Hill was a simple cemetery
where believers gathered at Saint Peter’s tomb to pray. In 319,
Constantine built a basilica on the site that stood for more than a
thousand years until, despite numerous restorations, it threatened to
collapse. In 1506, Pope Julius II ordered it razed and reconstructed, but
the new basilica was not completed and dedicated for more than two
centuries.
St. Paul’s Outside-the-Walls stands near the Abaazia delle Tre Fon-
tane, where Saint Paul is believed to have been beheaded. The largest
church in Rome until St. Peter’s was rebuilt; the basilica also rises over
the traditional site of its namesake’s grave. The most recent edifice
was constructed after a fire in 1823. The first basilica was also Con-
stantine’s doing.
Constantine’s building projects enticed the first of a centuries-long
parade of pilgrims to Rome. From the time the basilicas were first built
until the empire crumbled under “barbarian” invasions, the two
churches, although miles apart, were linked by a roofed colonnade of
marble columns.
Peter, the rough fisherman whom Jesus named the rock on which
the Church is built, and the educated Paul, reformed persecutor of
Christians, Roman citizen, and missionary to the Gentiles, are the
original odd couple. The major similarity in their faith-journeys is the
journey’s end: both, according to tradition, died a martyr’s death in
Rome - - Peter on a cross and Paul beneath the sword. Their combined
gifts shaped the early Church and believers have prayed at their tombs
from the earliest days. Franciscan Media
