Maurice of Savoy (10 January 1593 – 3 October 1657, Turin) was a Prince of Savoy and a cardinal of the Catholic Church from 1607.[1]
Life
Maurice was the son of Charles Emmanuel I, Duke of Savoy and Infanta Catherine Michelle of Spain. In 1607, he became cardinal and minister of Vercelli. In 1626, Maurizio established in Rome the creative and abstract Accademia dei Desiosi, one of the main foundations of the time. On 4 June 1627 he turned into the abbot of the cloister at Abondance and in 1637, on the passing of his senior sibling Victor Amadeus I, he and his sibling Thomas guaranteed the regime of the duchy against Victor Amadeus's widow Christine Marie of France, yet the lord upheld Christine and affirmed her as official. In 1642 he passed on the church to become ruler of Oneglia (1642) and marquis of Berzezio (1648). On 28 August 1642 he wedded his sibling Victor Amadeus' daughter, Princess Luisa Christina of Savoy (1629-1692) in Turin.
It was Maurice who claimed the future Villa della Regina and was an occupant representing things to come at Palazzo Chiablese.
