Pope Leo VII (died 13 July 939) was thebishop of Rome and nominal ruler of thePapal States from 3 January 936 to his death.

Election

Leo VII's election to the papacy in 936, after the death ofPope John XI,^[1]^[2] was secured byAlberic II of Spoleto, the ruler ofRome at the time. Alberic wanted to choose the pope so that the papacy would continue to yield to his authority. Leo was the priest of the church ofSan Sisto Vecchio in Rome, thought to be aBenedictine monk. He had little ambition towards the papacy, but consented under pressure.

Pontificate

As pope, Leo VII reigned for only three years. Most of hisbulls were grants of privilege to monasteries, especially including theAbbey of Cluny.^[3] Leo called forOdo of Cluny to mediate between Alberic and KingHugh of Italy. Odo was successful in negotiating a truce after arranging a marriage between Hugh's daughter Alda and Alberic. Leo VII also appointed ArchbishopFrederick of Mainz as a reformer in Germany. Leo allowed Frederick to drive outJews that refused to be baptized, but he did not endorse the forced baptism of Jews.^[4]

Leo VII died on 13 July 939, and was interred atSt. Peter's Basilica.^[5] He was succeeded byStephen VIII.
