Giulio della Rovere, also known as Giulio Feltrio della Rovere (5 April 1533 – 3 September 1578) was an Italian Cardinal of the Catholic Church and a member of the della Rovere family.
Della Rovere was the second son of Francesco Maria I della Rovere and Eleonora Gonzaga[1] and the younger brother of Guidobaldo II della Rovere, Duke of Urbino.
Della Rovere was elevated to cardinal in 1548 at the age of 13.[2]
He had two illegitimate sons: Ippolito[3] and Giuliano. Both were later legitimised, as were their children, by Pope Pius V in 1572. Ippolito was made Marchese di San Lorenzo.
