History of the Holy Door at St Peter's opens for jubilee
The Holy Door of St Peter's Basilica was opened by Pope Pius XI in April 1933 to mark the Holy Year for the 1900th anniversary of Christ's passion and resurrection. The door is normally bricked up with a cross, and the pope struck it three times with a golden hammer to open it. This marked the first special jubilee opening, with a previous one in 1925, and the ritual was established during the Holy Year of 1500 under Alexander VI.
