Family history Principe de Visconti

Prince of Visconti

The project title „Principe de Visconti“ refers to the famous Milanese house Visconti. Historically, the family ruled as lords and later as counts of Milan; not all members of the family held the unified title „Principe de Visconti“. Their documented history begins in the 11th century. The name probably refers to the office of a vizier, while Coat of arms the snake, the Biscione, became one of the most famous symbols of Italy.

1277 besiegte Erzbischof Ottone Visconti die rivalisierenden della Torre bei Desio und öffnete seiner Familie den Weg zur Herrschaft über Mailand. Sein Großneffe Matteo I. festigte die Macht durch geschickte Bündnisse. Im 14. Jahrhundert erweiterten Azzone, Luchino und Giovanni Visconti das Gebiet über große Teile Norditaliens. Ihre Höfe förderten Verwaltung, Baukunst und Literatur; selbst Petrarca hielt sich zeitweise im visconteischen Mailand auf.

Gian Galeazzo Visconti führte die Dynastie auf ihren Höhepunkt. 1395 erwarb er von König Wenzel die Herzogswürde, ließ an großen Projekten wie dem Mailänder Dom und der Certosa di Pavia arbeiten und schuf ein Herrschaftsgebiet, das zeitweise von Piemont bis nach Mittelitalien reichte. Nach seinem Tod 1402 erwies sich dieses Gefüge als schwer zusammenzuhalten.

Der letzte regierende Herzog aus der Hauptlinie, Filippo Maria Visconti, starb 1447. Mailand rief zunächst die Ambrosianische Republik aus. 1450 übernahm Francesco Sforza, der mit Filippos Tochter Bianca Maria Visconti verheiratet war, das Herzogtum. Auf diese Weise gingen Name, Wappenmotive und dynastisches Prestige in die neue Herrscherfamilie über.

Zahlreiche Seitenlinien der Visconti bestanden fort. Burgen, Handschriften, Kirchen und die Biscione im Stadtbild erzählen bis heute von einer Familie, die Mailand aus einer Kommune in eine glänzende Renaissanceherrschaft führte.
