Padroado

Padroado

The Padroado was a treaty between the Vatican and the kingdoms of Portugal and Spain.

The Vatican delegated to their kings the administration of the local Church. The kings ordered the construction of churches; and nominated pastors and bishops. Thus, the structure of the kingdoms of Portugal and Spain had both religious and political dimensions. Under the treaty many of the characteristic activities of the Church were functions of powerful politicians. The Inquisition functioned more to determine secular politics than its genuine religious function. The Padroado was modified over time, but its last vestiges were not suppressed until the Second Vatican Council. For example, until this council, it was the Head of Portuguese State which bestowed the cardinal's red biretta on the Patriarch of Lisbon.
