Conrad of Ascoli was an Italian Friar Minor and missionary; his feast day is April 19.
He belonged to the noble family of Miliani and from his earliest years made penance the predominating element of his life.
He entered the Order of Friars Minor at Ascoli together with his townsman and lifelong friend, Girolamo d'Ascoli, afterwards minister general, and later pope under the title of Nicholas IV.
Noted for his austerities, he was recalled from Africa, probably for reasons of health, to accompany his friend Girolamo, now papal legate, on a mission to the King of France, then at war with Spain.
[4] In 1288 he was summoned to Rome by the new pope, Nicholas IV, who wished to make him cardinal, but Conrad died on the way after reaching his native city on 19 April 1289, being then fifty-five years of age.
