Hello, and welcome to Schweizergarde.org! My name is Eduard Bauer, and I am the creator and sole author of this website. Originally from Germany, I now have the privilege of calling Rome my home, a city filled with history, faith, and timeless beauty.
Through this website, I share my passion for all things Rome, with a special focus on the Roman Catholic Church. Whether it’s the rich history of the Swiss Guard, the stunning architecture of the Vatican, or the deep spiritual traditions that shape this city, I aim to bring insightful and engaging stories to my readers.
Why I Started This Website
Moving to Rome was a life-changing experience, and I quickly became captivated by the city’s history, culture, and religious significance.
My blog is a way to document and share my discoveries, particularly about the Swiss Guard, whose role in protecting the Pope is as fascinating as it is historic.
If you want to read more about the ways I do things around here, read my editorial policy.
