The Pavilion was built on the occasion of the first participation of the Holy See in the Architecture Biennale; ten architects - from Italy, Spain, Portugal, Great Britain, USA, Australia, Brazil, Japan, Chile, Serbia and Paraguay - were called by Cardinal Gianfranco Ravasi to each build a chapel, starting from the model of the "chapel in the woods ”By Gunnar Asplund, built in 1920 in the Stockholm cemetery.
