Michele Morosini (1308 – 16 October 1382) was the 61st Doge of Venice, serving just 4 months from 10 June 1382 until his death on 16 October the same year. Born in one of the most important Venetian families, Morosini was extremely wealthy. Opinions about him are varied, though, and he is seen either as a devoted servant of the Republic, or as a speculator who enriched himself on real estate during the hard times of the War of Chioggia, fought between Venice and Genoa between 1378 and 1381. Elected after the death of Doge Andrea Contarini, he died very soon of the plague and was buried in the church of San Zanipolo, a traditional burial place of the doges. Read more on Wikipedia
