Peter I of Savoy

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Peter I (c. 1048-July 9, 1078) was count of Savoy and margrave of Turin jointly with his brother Amadeus II of Savoy from c. 1060 to 1078. He ruled only nominally, as true power was in the hands of his mother, Adelaide of Susa.

He married with Agnes of Aquitaine, (or Agnes of Poitiers), the daughter of William VII of Aquitaine , with whom he had one daughter, Alix of Savoy, who married with Frederick of Montbéliard.
