Pope Francis was pope for just over 12 years, from March 13, 2013, until his death on April 21, 2025.

He was elected as the 266th pope on March 13, 2013, after the resignation of Pope Benedict XVI, and his papacy ended with his passing on April 21, 2025. That span comes out to a little more than 12 years of leading the Roman Catholic Church.
