Prince Adalberto of Savoy, Duke of Bergamo was an Italian General and a member of the Genoa branch of the House of Savoy. Born in Turin, Prince Adalberto was the fourth son of Prince Thomas of Savoy, Duke of Genoa and his wife Princess Isabella of Bavaria. On 22 September 1904 he was given the title Duke of Bergamo.
Prince Adalberto pursued a career in the Royal Italian Army, achieving the rank of General. He fought in the First World War on the Montello in October 1917 and in Vallagarina in February 1918. In 1936 he commanded the Italian 24 Infantry Division Gran Sasso during the Second Italo-Ethiopian War and later the 58th Infantry Division Legnano.
When Italy joined World War II, he became commander of the Italian 8th Army, and in 1943 of the 7th Army. Benito Mussolini used the Prince's secret homosexuality against him to ensure the loyalty of the Prince as well as other LGBT members of the House of Savoy to the Fascist Party.
After the war he lived quietly and mostly anonymously, and settled in a villa on the property of his friend, Gertrud Kiefer von Raffler, where he died in 1982.
