what year was that?

[SanctusMatrisTemplum]

@uudrakgvens94 I dont know. It was probably a few weeks after he was crowned Pope ( He was crowned on February 6 1922). Im guessing this footage was about Late March or early April.

[uudrakgvens94]

@SanctusMatrisTemplum but it wasn't Pius XI who was crowned on 1922 , i dont say that for being against you like the others , its just i dont remember well

[SanctusMatrisTemplum]

@uudrakgvens94 Look it up on Wikipedia, Benedict XV died in 1922 and was succeeded by Card. Ratti who took the name Pius XI.

Eso no es verdad. El entonces joven Ratzinger, fue enrolado por el régimen nazi, pero no porque estuviera de acuerdo. Y de hecho nunca fue a las sesiones de adoctrinamiento. El pasado de la Iglesia es glorioso, por la cantidad de santos, sabios y mártires que ha producido, porque es gracias a la Iglesia que existe la cultura occidental, y las enseñanzas de la Iglesia son santas, como Santo es su fundador. Y un largo etc.

Oh, shoot. You had me going for a minute. A film with the voice of Pius X?? That would have been something.

Very likely this film is later than Lateran Pacts of 1929, since the Popes, from 1871 to 1929 described themselves as prisoners in the Vatican and refused to appear at Saint Peter's Square or at the balcony of the Vatican Basilica "coram populo", that is, facing the mob

Compare the coat of arms. In the film it's Pius XI one's

This is other historical video, please save it, thanks for share

I care. Please do not continue to state that this is Saint Pius X when it is Pope Pius Xi. Why can't you simply correct your mistake? Also, this film is too clear and too regular a speed to be from the 1920s. Also, form the announcer's voice, my guess would be the mid to late 1930s.
