Years: 847 - 847

Sergius dies in January 847 while negotiating between two patriarchs.

The cardinal of Santi Quattro Coronati, Roman by birth, a former subdeacon of Gregory IV and archpriest under Sergius, is unanimously chosen as his successor, elected on April 10, 847.

The pontificate of Leo IV will chiefly be distinguished by his efforts to repair the damage done by the Saracens during the reign of his predecessor to various churches of the city, especially those of St Peter and St Paul.
