A MOMENT IN HISTORY
1585 papal conclave
1585 CE · Vatican City, Europe · Politics
The 1585 papal conclave, convoked after the death of Pope Gregory XIII, elected Cardinal Felice Peretti, who took the name Sixtus V. Forty-two of the sixty cardinals participated in the conclave. The absence of thirty percent of the cardinalate makes this conclave one of the most sparsely attended in the history of the modern Roman Catholic Church.
