Guigues I of Albon

Guigues I, called the Old (c.995–1070), was a minor noble of the Kingdom of Arles who founded the line of the counts of Albon, the future dauphins of Viennois. From lands first attested at Moirans in 1016, he built a domain between the Rhône and the Alps, later holding Oisans, Grésivaudan and the Briançonnais. His lands lay in the Kingdom of Arles, incorporated into the Holy Roman Empire in 1033.

He placed kinsmen in the bishoprics of Grenoble and Valence. With his wife Adelaide he had a son, Guigues II, and died a monk at Cluny about 1070.
