Guecello Tempesta

Guecello Tempesta (c. 1288–1338) was a Trevisan noble and leader of the city's pro-Scaliger faction. In 1327, after two years in exile, he survived an assassination attempt at a wedding in Treviso, raised mercenaries at Noale and seized the city, executing his rivals.

He surrendered Treviso to Cangrande I della Scala in 1329 and served the Scaligeri as podestà of Verona. Switching sides in 1337, he took a Venetian command, but died in 1338, after which Venice dismantled his signoria.
