Pope Francis is marking the 500th anniversary of the Protestant Reformation by attending a historic prayer service alongside Sweden's Lutheran bishops.
Francis arrived to applause, hymns and tolling bells at the Lund Cathedral for the start of the service, featuring remarks by the Pope and the head of the Lutheran World Federation in the presence of Sweden's King Carl XVI Gustaf and Queen Silvia.
The Pope flew to Sweden on Monday to largely secular Sweden for the ecumenical service in Lund's Lutheran cathedral.
