November 799 CE

Leo had been received by the Frankish king with the greatest honor at Paderborn.

This meeting forms the basis of the epic poem Karolus Magnus et Leo Papa.

Leo’s enemies had accused the new pope of adultery and perjury.

Charles order them to Paderborn, but no decision can be made.

He then has Leo escorted back to Rome, to where he returns on November 29, 799.
