Matteo II Visconti (c. 1319 – 29 September 1355 in Saronno) was co-ruler of Milan together with his brothers Galeazzo II and Bernabò.
Matteo was the eldest son of Stefano Visconti and Valentina Doria.[1] In 1342 he married Egidiola di Filippino of Gonzaga.[2]
His uncle Luchino Visconti exiled him to Montferrat in 1346, but in 1350 returned to Milan. As co-ruler of the domain after the death of his uncle Giovanni Visconti (1354), Matteo was given Lodi, Piacenza, Parma and Bologna.
He died after a dinner in which, according to his mother and others, he had been poisoned by his brothers. His daughter Caterina was married to Ugolino Gonzaga of Mantua.[1]
