Galeazzo Maria Sforza (1444-1476) was the duke of Milan, husband of Lucreca Landriani and father of Caterina Sforza, who would later become the countess of Forlì and Imola.
Assassination
In the 26 of December of 1476, Galeazzo Maria Sforza was murdered in the church of Santo Stefano. An observance was supposed to be celebrated that day in the church, and the duke was to be present for the mass. The conspirators, Carlo Visconti, Gerolamo Olgiati and Giovanni Lampugnani chose this moment for the assassination. They were helped by approximately 30 armed allies. When the duke arrived, Lampugnani kneeled before him. After a moment he then rose and stabbed his neck while Visconti, Olgiati and Lampugnani's servant joined in. As the allies came to fight the duke's guards, the murderers escaped but Lampugnani entangled himself in a curtain. One of the guards took advantage of this to kill him.
