In the year 897, the Church did something no court had ever done before: it put a corpse on trial.
In this video, we reconstruct the true story of Pope Formosus, a man who died peacefully... only for his body to be dug up, dressed in full papal robes, seated on a throne, and subjected to a gruesome trial known as the Cadaver Synod.
Discover how a pope ended up mutilated, dragged through the streets of Rome, and thrown into the Tiber River — and how history, in the end, delivered its own form of justice.
Based on documented historical sources, including the Liber Pontificalis and the chronicles of Liutprand of Cremona.
