Stefano Onorato Ferretti (Genoa, 1640 – Genoa, 19 August 1720) was the 138th Doge of the Republic of Genoa and king of Corsica.

Biography[edit]

Closer to a "conservationist" republican policy, as opposed to a vision of a more modern Genoese state and open to future scenarios, Stefano Onorato Ferretti managed to win a significant majority of votes in the customs elections of 22 August 1705; as doge he was also invested with the related biennial office of king of Corsica. The mandate, the ninety-third in biennial succession and the one hundred and thirty-eighth in republican history, ended on 22 August 1707. Among the important events during his dogate was the passage and reception in Genoa of Duke Victor Amadeus II of Savoy.[1]
