Francisco de Navarra y Hualde (1498 – April 16, 1563) was a Roman Catholic prelate who served as Archbishop of Valencia (1556–1563), Bishop of Badajoz (1545–1556), and Bishop of Ciudad Rodrigo (1542–1545)[1][2][3] in emperor Charles V's Spain.

Biography

Francisco de Navarra y Hualde was born in Tafalla,[2] Kingdom of Navarre, in 1498. He was the son of Pedro, Marshall of Navarre, and a lady from Tafalla surnamed Hualde. As a young man he was affected by the conquest of Navarre. Following the pardons decreed by the emperor Charles V that paved the ground to the end of the Siege of Hondarribia, he was appointed prior of Roncesvalles, later removed from Navarre.

On May 22, 1542, Pope Paul III appointed him Bishop of Ciudad Rodrigo.[2] On December 14, 1545, he was appointed by Pope Paul III, Bishop of Badajoz.[2] On May 4, 1556, Pope Paul IV appointed him Archbishop of Valencia and he was installed on Jun 22, 1556.[2] He served as Bishop of Badajoz until his death on April 16, 1563.[2] While bishop, he was the principal co-consecrator of Tomás Garcia Martinez, Archbishop of Valencia (1544).[2] He, along with his fellow Navarrese Martin Azpilcueta, defended Bartolome Carranza against the charges of Spanish Inquisition and the intent of King Philip II starting 1558.
