Gregory VI

Antipope in 1012 · Religious Figures

On the death of Pope Sergius IV on 12 May 1012, a "certain Gregory" opposed the party of the Theophylae, and had himself made pope, seemingly by a small faction. Gregory VI was the first to claim to be pope as successor to Sergius IV, and Benedict VIII's claim was subsequent.

Gregory VI is read about 15 times a day, in 32 languages.

A typical day, 30 days to 15 September 2026

The middle day of the days counted, so one week of news cannot move it. The line under it is the last 60 days, one point a day.
