Biographical history

Giovanni Battista Cybo (or ‘Cibo’) was born in Genoa to an eminent Genoese family. His father, Arano Cybo (c.1375-c.1455) was viceroy of Naples and Giovanni Battista was consequently closely aligned with the Neapolitan court for a good part of his early life. He was consecrated as Bishop of Savona in 1467 by Pope Paul II and was made a cardinal by Pope Sixtus IV in 1473. When Pope Sixtus died in 1484, Giovanni Battista succeeded him as Pope Innocent VIII until his own death in 1492.
