Martino della Torre

Martino della Torre (died 20 November 1263), son of Iacopo della Torre and nephew of Pagano I, led Milan's popular party. An elder of the Credenza di Sant'Ambrogio from 1247, he continued the land survey begun by Pagano.

In April 1259 he became capitano del popolo and then the first signore of Milan. With Oberto Pallavicino he defeated the Ghibelline Ezzelino III da Romano at Cassano d'Adda in 1259, and later appointed Pallavicino commander-general.

He fought Pope Urban IV's appointment of Ottone Visconti as archbishop and was excommunicated. Made podestà of Novara in June 1263, he died at Lodi that November and was buried at Chiaravalle.
