Duarte, Duke of Guimarães (7 October 1515 – 20 September 1540) was a Portuguese infante (prince); the sixth son of King Manuel I of Portugal and his wife Maria of Aragon.
Life[edit]
Duarte was born in Lisbon on 7 October 1515.[1] He was tutored by André de Resende, who later wrote his biography.[2] The Infante loved hunting and was quite a good musician.[1]
In 1537, Duarte married Isabella of Braganza, daughter of James, Duke of Braganza,[2] who was dowried with the Dukedom of Guimarães in her own right. After the marriage, Infante Duarte became the 4th Duke of Guimarães.
This marriage produced three children:[1]

- Infanta Catarina, Duchess of Braganza (1540–1614), Duchess of Braganza, married to John, 6th Duke of Braganza, she was a claimant of the throne of Portugal in 1580 (See: 1580 Portuguese succession crisis).
