Bernhard von Cles

Bernhard von Cles (1485–1539) was born at Cles Castle in the Prince-Bishopric of Trent and studied law at Bologna. He became Prince-Bishop of Trent in 1514 and led the diocese through the peasant rising of 1525, in which his brother was killed.

A fierce opponent of Luther, he became president of Archduke Ferdinand's Privy Council in 1527 and pressed the Protestant estates at the Diet of Speyer in 1529. Made a cardinal in 1530, he helped prepare the Council of Trent.

He rebuilt Trento as a Renaissance city, rebuilding Santa Maria Maggiore and enlarging Buonconsiglio Castle. He died at Brixen in 1539.
