Prince of Sulmona
The Prince of Sulmona (Italian: Principe di Sulmona) is a noble title in Italy held by the House of Borghese. The title derives its name from Sulmona, a town in Abruzzo. Originally it was created in 1529, during Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor's reign as King of Naples for Philip de Lannoy, Prince of Sulmona.[1] This was given in recognition of the work done by his father Charles de Lannoy as Viceroy of Naples. The title became extinct in 1616 due to the lack of heirs. Due in large part to the diplomacy of Pope Paul V, the title was recreated for his nephew Marcantonio Borghese by Philip III of Spain who was directly ruling the Kingdom of Naples at the time.
