Domus Sanctae Marthae

The Domus Sanctæ Marthæ (Latin for Saint Martha's House; in Italian, Casa Santa Marta) is a building completed in 1996 adjacent to St. Peter's Basilica in Vatican City. Built during the reign of Pope John Paul II, it is named after Saint Martha the hospitable, who was sibling to Saints Mary and Lazarus of Bethany. The building presently functions as a guest house for various clergy having business with the Holy See, and as the hotel residence of the members of the College of Cardinals when they are participating in a Papal Conclave to elect a new Pope.
