Pope Francis’s Popemobile in Garda Headquarters on Monday

RTÉ reports:

Pope Francis will be driven through Dublin city centre in his ‘Popemobile’ on Saturday afternoon giving the public the first opportunity to see the pontiff, according to Assistant Garda Commissioner Pat Leahy.

Speaking on RTÉ’s Today with Miriam, Commissioner Leahy said this will take place after the pope finishes at the Pro-Cathedral at around 4.15pm.

The route will go south on O’Connell Street, across O’Connell Bridge, up Westmoreland Street, and continuing up Dame Street.

The route will then pass Christchurch Cathedral, go down Bridge Street and across the Liffey onto Church Street to the Capuchin Centre where Pope Francis will have a private meeting with homeless families.
