Biography

Blessed Ludovico Morbioli, also known as Ludovico of Bologna, was born in 1433 in Bologna, Papal States (in modern Italy). He was one of six children born to the lower middle-class family of Francesco Antonio and Agnes Morbioli. In his early adulthood, Ludovico led a dissolute life filled with gambling, violence, and heavy drinking. He was married to Lucia Tura during this time.
