The Apostolic Camera (Latin: Camera Apostolica), formerly known as the Papal Treasury, was an office in the Roman Curia. It was the central board of finance in the papal administrative system and at one time was of great importance in the government of the States of the Church and in the administration of justice,[1] led by the Camerlengo of the Holy Roman Church, originally known as camerarius (chamberlain).
