'Sire Raul (Milan, ca. 1100 - approx. 1200 AD) was an italian historian.

He lived in Milan in the late 12th century and at the beginning of 13th but details of his life aren't precisely known.

He was probably an official in the service of the Podestà of Milan, perhaps he personally took part in the Battle of Carcano (9-10 August 1160), where local militias and the army of Frederick Barbarossa met on field.

Remembered for his work as chronicler, Sire Raul is the author of the Annales Mediolanenses, important chronicles about the clash between the Emperor Frederick I Barbarossa and the Commune of Milan. For his chosen songs in Italian and Latin, see: Frederick A. Rossi Marignano, "Frederick Barbarossa and Beatrice of Burgundy. King and Queen of Italy, Oscar Mondadori 2009.
