Cardinals over the age of 80 in Papal conclave, 2013

This is a list of 90 Catholic Cardinals over the age of 80 on February 28, 2013, the date of resignation of Pope Benedict XVI.[1] As such, they are ineligible to vote in the Papal conclave (beginning March 12, 2013) to elect Benedict's successor.[1] This list is a sortable list of cardinals.

The youngest cardinal on this list, Lubomyr Husar of Ukraine, turned 80 only two days before the pope's resignation took effect. He is only seven days older than Walter Kasper of Germany, the oldest eligible cardinal elector in the conclave. Kasper in fact turned 80 shortly before the conclave started, but as he had been summoned to be an elector before that, he was not excluded.
