Rambaldo XIII di Collalto 1579-1630)
Born, in Mantua to Antonio Collalto and Giulia Torelli daughter of Marcantonio and Ippolita Gonzaga. His family, residing in the castle of San Salvatore in Susegana, was the most prestigious in the Treviso area, but for some time its noble privileges had been reduced by the government of the Serenissima. In 1595, for example, the right of mere and mixed empire was suppressed, while the Montello possessions were confiscated. Contrary to his relatives, such as his father and brothers Massimiliano II and Vincinguerra IV, Collalto reacted to these acts by refusing any military employment under the insignia of San Marco.
