Best Answer

The popes of the Catholic Church have always been the bishops of Rome. That being the case, they nearly all lived in Rome, in a papal palace.

There were other papal palaces in other cities, and there were times when the popes did not live in Rome at all. There was a period from 1257 to 1309, when the popes were said to have been wandering, because they rarely went to Rome because of political situations in the city. There was also a period from 1309 to 1377 when they lived in Avignon. But mostly, they lived in Rome.

In England each bishop had his own palace, often situated in or near the grounds of his cathedral. The ruins of the bishop of Winchester's palace can still be seen today. See link below:

In the 13th century the popes lived in Rome. For about seventy years the popes resided in Avignon, France, in the 14th century, however.

Where did the pope live in Medieval times?

The popes have always been the Bishops of Rome, and so they have mostly lived in Rome, throughout the history of the Church. There have been times when the popes did not stay in Rome much, or did not stay there at all. There was a time from 1257 to 1309 whose popes are called the "wandering popes" because the political situation in Rome was such that they were unsafe there. There was also a time from 1309 to 1377 when the popes lived in Avignon. Aside from these times, there were papal palaces in different places where the popes would stay when they had some reason to be there. There is a link below to the an article on the history of the papacy.
