Fat lot of good that'll do against a nuke!
I believe the pope (and majority of the catholic appratus) will stay in Rome right up until nukes start hitting the cities of the various belligerents. They may at that point head to France, but I doubt they'd stay long since there's certainly a number of viable targets there too (even if they are supposed to be neutral).
My guess is they may go to Spain, or even further afield, perhaps even Australia or one of the more stable regions of Central America.
The key to it is, in my opinion, communications. The Pope and his team need effective communications throughout the world to keep the church together and functioning on more than a local level. If they stay anywhere in Europe, those communications will be minimal at best - possibly limited to carrier pigeons and messengers. It's the same issue as faces Milgov and Civgov - if you can communicate, you can control.
