'''Pope Adrian V''' ({{langx|la|Hadrianus V}}; {{circa|1210/1220}} – 18 August 1276), born '''Ottobuono de' Fieschi''', was the head of the [[Catholic Church]] and ruler of the [[Papal States]] from 11 July 1276 to his death on 18 August 1276. He was an envoy of [[Pope Clement IV]] sent to England in May 1265 who successfully completed his task of resolving disputes between King [[Henry III of England]] and his [[baron]]s. Adrian V was elected pope following the death of [[Innocent V]], but died of natural illness before being [[ordained]] to the [[priesthood]].

In the ''[[Divine Comedy]]'', [[Dante]] meets Adrian V in the fifth terrace of [[Purgatory|''Purgatorio'']] where Adrian V cleanses for the [[vice]] of [[avarice]].
