The church was Catholic so it was the Pope and the priests.
The Catholic Church, or simply "the Church": there was no other in medieval Europe, and it certainly wasn't referred to as the Roman Catholic Church until the protestant revolt in England centuries later. The center of the Church was in Rome; the word "catholic" means universal. It was meant as the "universal church", or the church for everybody.
People who were not Catholic took over.
In the Middle Ages, royalty had access to aspects of the Church to which the peasants did not have. For example, many monarchs had a priest who acted as the monarch's personal confessor.
It was Catholic and the Pope was the head.
Catholic Church!
