Pope Benedict XVI waves to pilgrims, for the last time as head of the Catholic Church, from the window of the papal palace of Castel Gandolfo, Italy on February 28, 2013 where he will start his retirement after his abdication. He will stay at the Papal Summer residence of Castel Gandolfo until renovations are complete at a monastery in the grounds of the Vatican and will be known as Roman Pope Emeritus.
