Filippo I Colonna, IV. principe di Paliano

Don Filippo Colonna, Prince of Paliano, was an Italian nobleman, who was the head of the Colonna family of Rome and the hereditary Gran Connestabile at the court of Naples.

A nephew of Carlo Borromeo and grand nephew of Gian Giacomo Medici, he married Lucrezia Tomacelli, dei signori di Galatro (1576-1622) in 1597.

His rebuilding of Palazzo Colonna began the process of creating a unified structure of the assortment of medieval buildings. He realized the monumental garden entrance on Monte Cavallo.

At his death it was revealed that he had appointed his son Girolamo his heir, thus started a war of succession between Federico and Girolamo.

3. Girolamo Colonna (1604-1666) elevated to Cardinal in 1627 by Pope Urban VIII (the uncle of his brother-in-law Taddeo)[3].
4. Marcantonio V Colonna, Prince of Paliano (1606/1610-1659) married Isabella Gioeni Cardona, Princess of Castiglione and had issue; father in law of Maria Mancini;
