Walfred (or Waltfred) (died 896) was the Count of Verona and then Margrave of Friuli in the last decades of the ninth century.
Walfred was an early supporter of Berengar of Friuli in his bid for the Iron Crown of Lombardy following Charles the Fat's deposition in 887.
"[1] He was a consiliarius and marchio by appointment of Charles and he was the greatest magnate in eastern Lombardy after Berengar.
He even succeeded Berengar in Friuli, but under what circumstances scholarly opinion is divided.
[2] The Annales Fuldenses under the year 896, tell how Walfred died in office and how he had held Verona with "great fidelity to the emperor," meaning Arnulf of Carinthia, specifying that his death was the circumstance for Berengar to reassert his claim to kingship after his falling out with Arnulf earlier that year.
