LUX IN ARCANA
THE VATICAN SECRET ARCHIVE REVEALS ITSELF

100 original documents, selected among the treasures preserved and cherished by the Vatican Secret Archives for centuries, conclaves, heresies, popes and emperors, crusades, excommunications, ciphered letters, manuscripts, codices, and ancient parchments. Really ancient and priceless papal documents leave the Vatican for the first and possibly only time in history.
