Cappella di San Francesco Borgia
Historic site · Borgo, Italy
A chapel inside the Jesuit Curia Generalizia at Borgo Santo Spirito 4.
History
The Cappella di San Francesco Borgia stands inside the Jesuit Curia Generalizia at Borgo Santo Spirito 4. The Holy See's own published enumeration of its extraterritorial properties names the Curia Generalizia della Compagnia di Gesù, and separately the buildings on Borgo Santo Spirito adjoining it, among the properties on the Janiculum that hold extraterritorial status. Under the Lateran Treaty of 11 February 1929, Italy recognises the Holy See's full ownership of this property (Art. 13; Annex II). Art. 15 states that the property, «benché facenti parte del territorio dello Stato italiano» — although forming part of the territory of the Italian State — enjoys the immunities that international law grants to the headquarters of the diplomatic agents of foreign States. It is on Italian soil and visitors are subject to Italian law. The enumeration does not address the chapel individually.
