Pilgrims flood St. Peter's Square in the Vatican City on Sunday to watch Pope Benedict give his final weekly Angelus blessing before leaving office.

On February 11, Pope Benedict announced to cardinals in a regularly scheduled meeting that he would resign on February 28, making him the first pontiff to step down in centuries.
