Antonio Eugenio Visconti was born in Milan on 17 June 1713, the son of Annibale Visconti, a fieldmarshall of the Holy Roman Empire, and the noblewoman Claudia Erba-Odescalchi, a relative of Pope Innocent XI. His godfather was the famous leader Eugenio di Savoia.

He completed his studies at the University of Pavia where he obtained his doctorate in utroque iure[1] on 19 December 1737. After graduating, he practiced law at the Milan forum and was rapporteur of the Sacred Council of the Sacred Consulta from 1748, becoming secretary of the Sacred Congregation for Indulgences and Relics.[1] Administrator of the Hospital of San Gallo in Rome, he became a priest of the Archconfraternity of the Pilgrims and of the Carmine, and held a position as well with the Supreme Tribunal of the Apostolic Signatura.

He was transferred to the nunciature in Austria as of 22 November 1766.[2]
