Obizzo II d'Este

Obizzo II d'Este

Obizzo II d'Este (c. 1247 – February 13 1293) was lord of Ferrara and the March of Ancona.

He was a bastard (cfr. http://genealogy.euweb.cz/welf/welf8.html), the fruit of an illegitimate relation of his father, Rinaldo I d'Este, a son of margrave Azzo VII d'Este. He was legitimated in his first years, since Rinaldo needed an heir to continue the house.

In 1264 he was proclaimed life-long ruler of Ferrara, seignor of Modena in 1288 and of Reggio in 1289. His rule marked the end of the communal period in Ferrara and the beginning of the seigniory, which lasted until the 17th century.

He was probably killed by his son Azzo VIII d'Este.

Obizzo d'Este is cited in Dante's "Inferno".
