Election of the Pope 1143
The papal election in 1143 took place on September 26, 1143 after the death of Pope Innocent II and ended with the election of Guido di Castello as Pope Celestine II.
Election of Celestine II.
Pope Innocent II died in Rome on September 24, 1143. During the first eight years after his election as Pope , he had an antipope in Anaclet II , who died in 1138 and whose successor, antipope Viktor IV, abdicated after a few weeks and submitted. In the Second Lateran Council in April 1139 he deposed all followers of Anaclet. Despite the submission, the final years of Innocent's pontificate were unsuccessful. The papal army was defeated by King Roger II of Sicily, who had received the royal dignity from Anaclet II and wanted Innocent II to confirm it. After the lost battle of Galluccio on July 22nd, 1139, the Pope was captured by Roger II and had to confirm all the privileges that Anaclet II had promised the king. The election of the Pope in 1143 took place in the shadow of this revolution.
The papal election took place in the Lateran basilica and appointed Guido del Castello pope, who had previously been papal legate to Roger II and was the first cardinal to hold the title of Magister . He gave himself the name Celestine II and was consecrated the same day.
