{{Main|Papal conclave, January 1276}}
After the required ten days had passed, the Cardinals assembled on the Vigil of St. Agnes (20 January) to hear the customary Mass of the Holy Spirit. There were twelve cardinals present.<ref>Eubel I, p. 9 n.4; Sternfeld, 241.  [http://www.csun.edu/~hcfll004/SV1276.html Sede Vacante and Conclave, January 1276 (Dr. J. P. Adams).]</ref>  Two cardinals, Simon de Brion, who was Papal Legate in France, and Giovanni Gaetano Orsini, did not attend.<ref>Eubel suggests, p. 9, n.4, that a third cardinal might not have attended. He indicates it might have been Cardinal Riccardo Annibaldi.</ref> The next morning, 21 January, Cardinal Peter of Tarantaise was the unanimous choice of the electors, on the first ballot (scrutiny).<ref>Peter of Tarantaise, Innocent V, remarks on the event in his Electoral Manifesto, ''Nuper Sanctae'' (A. Tomassetti, ''Bullarium Romanum ''Turin edition Vol. IV, pp. 35-36).</ref>  He was the first Dominican to become Pope. He chose the pontifical name of "Innocent".   His decision was to be crowned in Rome, which had not seen a pope since the departure of Gregory X in the third week of June, 1272.  By 7 February the Papal Curia had reached Viterbo. King Charles of Naples rode up to Viterbo to meet the new Pope and escort him to Rome.<ref>Paul Durrieu, ''Les archives angevines de Naples'' II (Paris 1887), p. 180.  On 4 January the King was at Frosinone; on 5 January he was at Viterbo.  On 8 January he was in Rome, where he stayed until 6 February.  He is attested at Viterbo on 9 February, and on February 10 he was back in Rome, where he stayed continually until July.</ref>  On 22 February 1276, the Feast of S. Peter's Chair, Pope Innocent was crowned in the Vatican Basilica by Cardinal [[Pope Nicholas III|Giovanni Gaetano Orsini]].
