Tens of thousands of people at the funeral of Pope Benedict

Twelve people carried his coffin out of St. Peter’s Basilica Pope Benedict and they placed it in front of tens of thousands of believers who have gathered in the square for the final joy. His body was put on a popular pilgrimage.

Pope Francis arrived in a wheelchair to lead the ceremony, as he is dealing with a problem with his knee. He sat in a chair facing the coffin, stooped and grim-faced, as the choirs sang in Latin.
