Borgo Pio

The main roads run east-west and (with the noteworthy exception of the modern Via della Conciliazione) are not named Vie, but Borghi.

Although heavily transformed during the first half of the twentieth century, Borgo Pio maintains its historical importance as a forecourt to Saint Peter's Basilica and the Vatican Palace.

Since 1950, the remaining Borghiciani (the name by which the inhabitants of the Borgo are called in Roman dialect), live north of the Passetto, where the quarter retained until recent times its popular character. Several high prelates live there: among them, Pope Benedict XVI who had been living in Borgo Pio for more than twenty years before his election to the Papacy.
