They are named after the Lateran Palace, where they were signed on February 11, 1929. The Italian parliament ratified them on June 7, 1929. Italy was then under a Fascist government, but the succeeding governments have all upheld the treaty. It recognized the Vatican as an independent state, with Prime Minister Benito Mussolini agreeing to give the church financial support and other benefits in return for public support from the pope at the time. In the first article of the treaty, Italy affirmed the principle that "the Catholic, Apostolic and Roman Religion is the only religion of the State". In 1947, the Lateran Pacts were incorporated into the Constitution of Italy.Scott Catalogue Number: 254 - 255Michel Catalogue Number: 313 - 314Please note: You can combine purchases to minimise postage costs. 1-9 eligible items - single charge 10+ eligible items - postage is free.
