Albon (noble family)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Albon was a family of the Burgundian nobility, who in the middle of the 12th century was transferred by the Archbishop of Vienne to the southern part of the previous County of Vienne as County Albon , from which the Dauphiné ( Dauphin von Viennois ) developed. The family also came into possession of the County of Forez through marriage .

The older branch of the family, the Dauphins of Viennois, died out in 1228, the younger branch, the Counts of Forez, in 1373
