Amadeus II of Geneva

Amadeus II (died 22 May 1308) was Count of Geneva from 1280, succeeding his brother Aymon II. A son of Count Rudolf of Geneva and Marie de Coligny, he inherited a county burdened by debt and surrounded by the expanding lands of Savoy.

From 1282 he fought Amadeus V of Savoy in coalitions, but by 1287 had to do homage at Annemasse. Renewing the war in 1304, he built the fortress of Gaillard near Geneva and accepted papal arbitration in 1306.

He married Agnes of Chalon in 1285 and died near Vuache castle in 1308. Geneva passed to his son William III.
