VATICAN-POPE-CASA MARTA

This handout picture released by the Vatican Press Office on March 9, 2013 shows the chapel of the Casa Santa Marta, the residence inside the Vatican where the cardinals electors will eat and sleep between votes during the conclave. The conclave of 115 “cardinal electors” will begin on Tuesday to choose the 264th pope, following Benedict XVI’s abrupt decision to resign last month after a troubled eight-year papacy that was often overshadowed by scandals.
