Biography
editPlacido Padiglia was born in Naples, Italy, sometime in 1579. He was ordained as a priest in the Celestine Order of Saint Benedict at some point during his adulthood.[7][8] On 20 September 1627, during the papacy of Pope Urban VIII, Padiglia was appointed as Bishop of Lavello.[2][7] On 26 September 1627, he was consecrated bishop by Guido Bentivoglio d'Aragona, Cardinal-Priest of Santa Maria del Popolo, along with Girolamo de Franchis, Bishop of Nardò, and Francesco Maria Brancaccio, Bishop of Capaccio, serving as co-consecrators.[7] On 27 November 1634, he was appointed during the papacy of Pope Urban VIII as Bishop of Alessano.[1][7] Padiglia went on to serve as Bishop of Alessano until his death on 14 June 1648.[1][7]
In 1645, while bishop of Alessano, Padiglia served as the principal co-consecrator of Jacobus Wemmers, for his role as Titular Bishop for the Egyptian city of Memphis.[7]
