Gabriele Adorno

Gabriele Adorno (1320–1383) was the fourth Doge of Genoa. A member of the noble Adorno family, he was elected on 14 March 1363 to succeed Simone Boccanegra, who had died in office. He remained in the position until 13 August 1370, when he was deposed by the people of Genoa, because he had introduced too high taxes. He was succeeded by Domenico di Campofregoso.
