Martino Muralto

Martino Muralto (Locarno c.1521-1566) was an Italian lawyer and elder in the exiled Italian Protestant church in Zürich.

[1] The church was made up of 250 members, many refugees from Locarno, and was an influential centre of free Italian Protestantism outside Italy during the period 1540–1620.

[2] Muralto accompanied Lelio Sozzini to Basel, to secure Bernardino Ochino as pastor at Zürich in 1553,[3] and ten years later it was Muralto again who made a final appeal to Bullinger to intervene in Ochino's expulsion from the city in 1563, following Ochino's Thirty Dialogues, which included a dialogue questioning the Trinity and other matters which attracted opposition.
