Popes: Blessed Victor III #156, VRP Catholic Media. Determined to be a monk, this pope was forced flee from his relatives in order to gain the habit. As a Benedictine, he undertook a number of building projects and beautified his church with artists imported from Constantinople. Forcibly enthroned by the cardinals and clergy, four days later, he put off the papal insignia and fled to Monte Casino. He eventually conceded and held a council at Benevento which condemned both antipope Guibert (Clement III) and lay investiture.
