    Pope Alexander VI, originally named Rodrigo Borgia, was the head of the Catholic Church from 1492 until his death in 1503. Known as one of the most controversial of the Renaissance popes, he is infamous for his corrupt, nepotistic, and morally reprehensible behavior. Despite his negative reputation, his reign was instrumental in the effort to solidify the church's political power, and he played a significant role in the events that led to the beginning of the modern era.

  1. Pope Alexander VI

    Pope Alexander VI, born Roderic Llançol i de Borja was the head of the Catholic Church from 11 August 1492 to his death in 1503. He is one of the most controversial of the Renaissance popes, and his Italianized Catalan surname Borgia became a byword for libertinism and nepotism, which are traditionally considered as characterizing his papacy. However, his reputation is mostly drawn from his enemies, the Italian prelates and barons whose power he subverted. Two of Alexander's successors, Sixtus V and Urban VIII, described him as one of the most outstanding popes since St. Peter. His reputation rests more on his considerable skills as a diplomat, politician, and civil administrator rather than as a pastor, although regarding the latter he was no less effective than any of the other renaissance pontiffs.
