The list of pastoral visits of Pope Paul VI details the travels of the first pope to leave Italy since 1809,[1][2] representing the first ever papal pilgrimage to the Holy Land[3] and the first papal visit to the Americas, Africa, Oceania, and Asia.[1][2] Pope Paul VI visited six continents, and was the most-travelled pope in history to that time, earning the nickname "the Pilgrim Pope".[4][5] With his travels he opened new avenues for the papacy, which were continued by his successors Popes John Paul II, Benedict XVI and Francis. He traveled to the Holy Land in 1964 where he met with Ecumenical Patriarch Athenagoras I in Jerusalem which led to rescinding the excommunications of the Great Schism, which took place in 1054.[6] The Pope also traveled to the Eucharistic Congresses in Bombay, India and Bogotá, Colombia. The first papal visit to the United States occurred on October 4, 1965, when Paul VI visited New York City to address the United Nations at the invitation of Secretary-General U Thant.[7] During that visit, the Pope first stopped at St. Patrick's Cathedral where some 55,000 people lined the streets to greet him,[8] met with President Lyndon B. Johnson at the Waldorf Astoria,[9] addressed the United Nations General Assembly, celebrated Mass at Yankee Stadium,[10] and viewed Michelangelo's Pieta at the New York World's Fair in Queens.[7] Fifty years after the first apparition of Our Lady of Fátima, he visited the shrine in Fátima, Portugal in 1967. He undertook a pastoral visit to Africa in 1969. After a 1970 trip to several Asian and Pacific nations, he made no additional international trips.[11] He died on August 6, 1978.[12]
