Luigi Porro Lambertenghi
Count Luigi Renato Porro-Lambertenghi was an Italian nationalist, businessman, and politician. He was the son of politician and essayist Luigi Lambertenghi.
He inherited Villa del Balbianello in 1796 from his uncle, Cardinal Angelo Maria Durini. Among his guests were Silvio Pellico, who tutored Lambertenghi's two sons there. When he was forced to leave Italy, Lambertenghi sold the villa to his friend, Giuseppe Visconti di Modrone, grandfather of Luchino Visconti.
Lambertenghi's grandson, Count Giulio Porro-Lambertenghi, was among the dignitaries who attended the Canonization of Joan of Arc.
