About Astorre III Manfredi
Lived 1485 – 1502 (aged 16). Astorre III Manfredi was a politician.
Astorre III Manfredi (June 20, 1485 – June 9, 1502) was lord of Faenza, in northern Italy, from 1488 to 1501.
He was born in Faenza, the son of Galeotto Manfredi and Francesca Bentivoglio, daughter of the lord of Bologna Giovanni II Bentivoglio and Ginevra Sforza. He succeeded his father in the lordship of Faenza in 1488 at the age of three.
His youth and upbringing was relatively quiet until the start of the Italian Wars: in 1500 Cesare Borgia besieged Faenza which at first resisted, but then in April 1501 capitulated and the young lord Astorre was deposed by Cesare Borgia himself and sent to Rome. His title as lord of Faenza passed to his step-brother Francesco, who reigned for almost an year with the name of Astorre IV Manfredi.
