Alberghettino II Manfredi
Alberghettino II Manfredi (c.1285 – 18 November 1329) was the second signore of Faenza. The son of Francesco I Manfredi, he first tried to overthrow his father in 1326 and fled when the plot was discovered. In 1327, urged on by rival families, he entered Faenza and proclaimed himself signore.
In 1328 the papal legate besieged him; Alberghettino resisted for twenty-five days before surrendering the city. He then plotted to give Bologna to the Emperor Louis the Bavarian in return for the vicariate of Faenza. Discovered and imprisoned, he was tortured and beheaded in Bologna on 18 November 1329, after ten months in prison.
