⭐ Core Definition: Marzio Mastrilli

Marzio Mastrilli (6 September 1753 – 4 February 1833), Marquis of Gallo (marchese di Gallo), was a Neapolitan nobleman, diplomat and statesman. The second son of Mario, Duke of Marigliano, and Giovanna Caracciolo di Capriglia, he was born at the castle of Ponticchio, near Nola. As per family custom, he received the secundogeniture of the small marquisate of Gallo. Only in 1813 did King Joachim Murat raise his title to Duke of Gallo (duca di Gallo) and make it hereditary.

In 1801 Mastrilli married his niece, Maddalena, daughter of his brother Giovanni, in Naples. She died on 4 January 1812, a victim of several stillbirths. In 1813 Mastrilli married Maria Luisa Colonna, daughter of Andrea, Prince of Stigliano, who bore him heirs. He died at Naples; his mémoires were finally published by Benedetto Maresca in 1888 under the title Le Memorie del duca di Gallo.

Marzio Mastrilli in the context of Armistice of Leoben

The Peace of Leoben was a general armistice and preliminary peace agreement between the Holy Roman Empire and the First French Republic that ended the War of the First Coalition. It was signed at Eggenwaldsches Gartenhaus, near Leoben, on 18 April 1797 (29 germinal V in the French revolutionary calendar) by General Maximilian von Merveldt and the Marquis of Gallo on behalf of the Emperor Francis II and by General Napoléon Bonaparte on behalf of the French Directory. Ratifications were exchanged in Montebello on 24 May, and the treaty came into effect immediately.

On 30 March, Bonaparte had made his headquarters at Klagenfurt and from there, on 31 March, he sent a letter to the Austrian commander-in-chief, Archduke Charles, requesting an armistice to prevent the further loss of life. Receiving no response, the French advanced as far as Judenburg by the evening of 7 April. That night, Charles offered a truce for five days, which was accepted. On 13 April, Merveldt went to the French headquarters at Leoben. He requested the armistice be extended so that a preliminary peace could be signed, which was granted, and three proposals were drawn up. The final one was accepted by both sides, and on 18 April at Leoben, the preliminary peace was signed.
