Did you know

The papal clothes worn by Jude Law in his role as Pope Pius XIII were created by a store which also makes clothing for the real Vatican.

None of the series was filmed in Vatican City. Almost everything - including the Sistine Chapel and the papal library - was reconstructed at Cinecittà Studios in Rome.

The first season had a production budget of $45 million, making it the most expensive Italian television production in history.
