Godepert

Godepert (also Gundipert, Godebert, Godipert, Godpert, Gotebert, Gotbert, Gotpert, Gosbert, or Gottbert) was king of the Lombards (crowned 661), eldest son and successor of Aripert I.

In a war with his brother, he beckoned Duke Grimoald I of Benevento, who assassinated him in his Pavian palace, the Reggia.

[1] Godepert's son Raginpert managed to escape and would later rule, but first, Grimoald would seize the throne.

He was buried in the Basilica of Santissimo Salvatore in Pavia.
