Annibaldo Caetani di Ceccano[2] (c. 1282 – 1350) was an Italian Cardinal.[3] His palace, the Livrée Ceccano at Avignon, begun in about 1335/1340, still survives;[4] it is now a public library.
He was Archbishop of Naples from 1326 to 1328 and undertook diplomatic missions, for example setting up the 1343 truce between England and France.[5][6] He was Bishop of Frascati from 1332 to 1350.[7] He was archpriest of Saint Peter's Basilica (1342-1350), as well as Archdeacon of Cornwall from 1342 to 1344, and Archdeacon of Nottingham from 1331 to 1348.
He is celebrated for the luxury of a feast he gave in 1343 for Pope Clement VI, an eye-witness account of which has survived.[8]
