Papa Zakaria alikuwa Papa kuanzia tarehe 3 Desemba 741 hadi kifo chake tarehe 15 Machi 752^[1]. Alitokea Ugiriki^[2] au Santa Severina, Calabria, Italia, labda akiwa na asili ya Balkani.

Jina la baba yake lilikuwa Polichronios.

Alimfuata Papa Gregori III akafuatwa na Papa Stefano II^[3].

Anasifiwa sana na wanahistoria mbalimbali kwa jinsi alivyokabili vizuri mazingira magumu na ya hatari^[4], akiongoza familia ya Mungu kwa umakinifu na busara ya hali ya juu.

Alifaulu kupatana na Walombardi walioteka sehemu kubwa ya Italia^[5] au kupunguza ukali wao, aliwaelekeza Wafaranki namna ya kutawala kwa haki na kumhimiza Pipino Mfupi kujifanya rasmi mfalme wao^[6], alifanya makabila ya Kijerumani yawe na makanisa zaidi, aliunga mkono umisionari wa Bonifas huko Ujerumani^[7], alidumisha umoja na Kanisa la Mashariki, alipinga sera ya kaisari Konstantino V dhidi ya picha takatifu^[6], alidhibiti mwelekeo wa kutunga majina kwa malaika^[8] na alikataza biashara ya watumwa mjini Roma akiwakomboa waliokwisha kuletwa^[5][9][10].

Tangu kale anaheshimiwa na Wakatoliki na Waorthodoksi kama mtakatifu.

Sikukuu yake huadhimishwa tarehe 15 Machi^[11].
