Raginpert

Duke of Turin and Lombard king of Italy
Years: 655 - 701

Raginpert (also Raghinpert or Reginbert) is the Duke of Turin and then King of the Lombards briefly in 701.

He is the son of Godepert and grandson of Aripert I.

He usurps the throne in 701 and removes Liutpert, his grandnephew, putting his son Aripert in line for the succession.

He and his Neustrians (men of Piedmont) go out to meet the regent, Ansprand, in battle and defeat him at Novara, but Raginpert dies shortly after.

His son Aripert does not succeed in taking the throne right away.
