Where does God live? What is God’s house? The burning bush? The pillar of fire? Solomon’s Temple? St. Peter’s Basilica? The Basilica of Assisi? The Great Mosque of Mecca? Or high up, in those temples hidden among the clouds of Nepal where Buddha is said to have been born? Or was he in the Bamiyan Valley, where he had protected travelers for generations before sacrilegious hands blew everything up in 2001? Humans have been contemplating these questions since prehistoric times. All ancient civilizations built temples and places of worship for deities that often multiplied. But, if we wanted to see and encounter God, where should we go? The French Academy in Rome-Villa Medici examined this fascinating issue for the Jubilee 2025 with the exhibition ‘Shared Sacred Places’ (October 9, 2025 – January 19, 2026). The exhibition features notable pieces from the collections of France, Italy, and the Vatican, as well as contemporary works. From Gentile da Fabriano to Marc Chagall, passing through Le Corbusier, the show aims to highlight a little-known yet widespread religious phenomenon in the Mediterranean: sacred places shared by believers of different faiths. The exhibition featured exceptional loans from the Vatican Museums, the Jewish Museum of Rome, the Louvre in Paris, and the Mucem–Musée des Civilisations de l’Europe et de la Méditerranée in Marseille.
