Cristoforo Giacobazzi (died 1540) was an Italian Roman Catholic bishop and cardinal.
Biography
Giacobazzi was born in Rome, the son of Jacomo Giacobazzi and Camilla de Astallis.[1] He was the nephew of Cardinal Domenico Giacobazzi, who took responsibility for Cristoforo's education.[1]
On 21 February 1517, he became a canon of the cathedral chapter of St. Peter's Basilica.[1] He was elected bishop of Cassano on 23 March 1523 when his uncle resigned the see in his favor.[1] He later became an auditor of the Roman Rota.[1] From October 1534 to December 1536, he was a datary.[1] On 23 August 1535, he was named to a commission charged with studying reform of the Roman Curia.[1]
Pope Paul III created him a cardinal priest in the consistory of 22 December 1536.[1] He received the red hat on 23 December 1536, and the titular church of Sant'Anastasia on 15 January 1537.[1] On 6 September 1537, he opted for the titular church of Sant'Eustachio, a deaconry raised pro illa vice to title, though he maintained his former titular church in commendam.[1]
On 10 December 1537, he and Cardinal Rodolfo Pio da Carpi, was named papal legate to restore the peace between Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor and Francis I of France (though the cardinals were not informed of the legation until the consistory celebrated in Piacenza on 30 April 1538).[1] On 21 April 1539, he was made legate to Perugia and Umbria.[1]
He died in Perugia on 7 October 1540, and was buried there.[1]
