This is a ive video feed from Vatican Media showing St Peters Square and also various religious services and more.
Saint Peter's Square (Latin: Forum Sancti Petri, Italian: Piazza San Pietro) is a large plaza located directly in front of St. Peter's Basilica in Vatican City, the papal enclave in Rome. Both the square and the basilica are named after Saint Peter the first Pope.

At the centre of the square is the Vatican obelisk, an ancient Egyptian obelisk erected at the current site in 1586. Gian Lorenzo Bernini designed the square almost 100 years later, including the massive Doric colonnades, four columns deep, which embrace visitors in "the maternal arms of Mother Church". A granite fountain constructed by Bernini in 1675 matches another fountain designed by Carlo Maderno in 1613.

According to the Lateran Treaty the area of St. Peter's Square is subject to the authority of Italian police for crowd control even though it is a part of the Vatican state.
