Niccolò I Trinci

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Niccolò I Trinci (died January 10, 1421) was the lord of Foligno from 1412. He inherited it from his father Ugolino III Trinci. He fought also as condottiero for the Republic of Venice. In 1404 he had married Tora da Varano, daughter of Rodolfo III da Varano, lord of Camerino.

In 1421 the Castellan of Nocera Umbra, Pietro di Rasiglia, since suspected his wife of adultery with Niccolò, invited the whole Trinci family to an hunting party and killed all the them, except the young Corrado, who took revenge of the murder of his relatives attacking the town and killing the castellan.
