The Dolton house where Pope Leo XIV grew up
2025
Dolton, Illinois
Robert Prevost grew up in a brick house on East 141st Place in Dolton. After his election in 2025 as the first American pope, the village bought the house and set about preserving it as a historic site. It is an ordinary post war single family build on an ordinary residential block, now village property rather than a private home.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
