Preparations for the conclave to find a new pope accelerated Friday with the installation of the chimney out of the Sistine Chapel that will signal the election of a successor to Pope Francis.

On Friday morning, May 2, Vatican workers were seen hoisting a chimney onto the roof at the Sistine Chapel, according to photos and video taken by Reuters. The chimney will soon be used to display the smoke from burnt ballots during the conclave to elect Pope Francis’ successor.

The Vatican is finalizing preparations for the May 7 conclave, with firefighters on Friday installing a chimney on the roof of the Sistine Chapel.
