Kontroversi Penobatan

Kontroversi Penobatan atau Kontes Pelantikan (bahasa Inggris: Investiture Controversy), yang terkadang secara salah diterjemahkan menjadi "Kontroversi Pentahbisan", adalah konflik paling signifikan antara gereja dan negara pada Abad Pertengahan di Eropa. Pada abad ke-11 dan ke-12, Paus menentang wewenang penguasa Eropa dalam penobatan atau pelantikan pejabat-pejabat gereja seperti uskup dan biarawan.

Raja abad pertengahan memberikan simbol kepemimpinan kepada seorang uskup. Karya Philip Van Ness Myers, 1905

Kontroversi penobatan, bukan penahbisan sebagaimana sering salah dipahami, dimulai saat perebutan kekuasaan terjadi antara Paus Gregorius VII (1072-1085) dan Henry IV, Kaisar Romawi Suci (1056–1106). Kontroversi ini diselesaikan oleh Konkordat Worms pada tahun 1122.
