  Emmanuel Philibert, Duke of Savoy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Emmanuel Filiberto, Duke of Savoy (July 8, 1528, Chambéry - August 30, 1580, Turin) was Duke of Savoy from 1553 to 1580.
Emmanuel Filiberto was the only child of Charles III, Duke of Savoy and Beatrice of Portugal to reach adulthood.
A month later, he became duke on the death of his father, but this was a nearly empty honor, as the vast majority of his hereditary lands had been occupied and administered by the French since 1536.
