List of non-extant papal tombs

List of non-extant papal tombs is a list of popes whose burial sites are not extant. This means their locations have been destroyed or are unknown.

The best part of the list is that one of the popes on the list is Pope Hilarius. This made me laugh. I had no idea there was a Pope Hilarius. He was Pope in the fifth century. Those must have been side-splitting times for the Catholic Church.

I found Hilarius's tomb.
