Francesco Novello da Carrara

Francesco Novello da Carrara

Francesco Novello da Carrara (may 19, 1359 - January 16, 1405) was Lord of Padua after his father, Francesco il Vecchio, renounced the lordship on June 29, 1388; he was a member of the family of Carraresi. He married Taddea, daughter of Niccolò II d'Este, Lord of Modena.

He fought in the Battle of Castagnaro (1387) for Padua.

He was executed by Venetian officials after his capture during the war between Venice and Padua (see Wars of Guelphs and Ghibellines). His sons Francesco and Giacomo who had also been captured were executed the following day. ["An Account of the End of the Carrara Dynasty, 1406," from A., B., and G. Gatari, "Cronaca carrarese."]
