history

Pope Sixtus IV established the cardinal title in 1477 on the occasion of the creation of Cardinal Pietro Foscari , a nephew of the Venetian Doge Francesco Foscari . Possibly the title was linked to the church "San Nicoló del Colosseo", of which only the name is known today.

On April 13, 1587, the title of Pope Sixtus V was canceled. He had already fundamentally reformed the College of Cardinals in December 1586 with the Apostolic Constitution Postquam verus , after its renewal had been heatedly discussed at the Council of Trent, but remained without a solution. Among other things, he set the maximum number of cardinals at 70, corresponding to the number of elders in Israel in the Old Testament. This determination remained binding until 1963.

With the Constitution Religiosa, enacted a few months later, Sixtus V specified the regulations and reorganized the title dioceses, churches and diaconies. In particular, titles were abolished whose church buildings were no longer used as such or had become "in ruins". The latter also included the already vacant title of San Nicola.
