Primarily to escape from the infighting and politics of powerful families of Rome, the Avignon Papacy, from 1309 to 1377, was when seven popes resided in Avignon, France:

+ Pope Clement V (1305-1314)

+ Pope John XXII (1316-1334)

+ Pope Benedict XII (1334-1342)

+ Pope Clement VI (1342-1352)

+ Pope Innocent VI (1352-1362)

+ Pope Urban V (1362-1370)

+ Pope Gregory XI (1370-1378) Gregory XI moved the papacy back to Rome in 1376.

Why didn't the Jews leave during the holocaust?

Many tried to leave, but in the first third of the 20th century and the end of the 19th century, Russian persecution of the Jews of Eastern Europe had unleashed a flood of refugees on Western Europe and the Americas. As a result, many countries had already erected high barriers to Jewish immigration before Germany began turning the screws on its Jewish population. Furthermore, through the 1930s, only German Jews were seriously affected. The Jews of Poland, Austria, Hungary, Italy and France thought they were safe.
