Pope Boniface VIII

head of the Catholic Church
Years: 1235 - 1303

Pope Boniface VIII (c. 1235 – 11 October 1303), born Benedetto Gaetani, is Pope of the Catholic Church from 1294 to 1303.

Today, he is probably best remembered for his feuds with Dante, who placed him in the Eighth Circle of Hell in his Divina Commedia, among the simonists.
