Humbert II of Savoy

Humbert II, called the Fat (1065–1103), succeeded his father Amadeus II as Count of Savoy in 1080, ruling at first under his grandmother Adelaide of Susa, who governed the Italian possessions. After her death in 1091, Emperor Henry IV seized the March of Turin in 1092, leaving him only the Susa valley south of the Alps.

Humbert secured the Mont Cenis pass on the Via Francigena and founded the first Savoyard mint at Susa. He was the first count to call himself Marquis of Italy. He died at Moûtiers on 19 October 1103 and was succeeded by his son Amadeus III.
