The Adorno family was a patrician family in Genoa, Italy, of the Ghibelline party, with the branches of Botta Adorno of Milan and Adorno Pastorino of Turin, several of whom were Doges of the republic.[1] They were generally rivals of the Fregoso family. Both families rose to power in the late 14th century.[2]
The first of the Adorno doges, Gabriele Adorno, is also the tenor role in Giuseppe Verdi's opera Simon Boccanegra.[3]
