Doria After finally capturing Barthélémy Doria, Augustine Grimaldi had him judged in Monaco, and assigned to the capital punishment. However, Pope Clement VII opposed this sentence and Barthélémy was release. Later, when, during the night, he attacked the castle of La Penna owned by Augustine Grimaldi, Barthélémy Doria perished as he fell to the ground in an attempt to escalate up the cliff that led to the fortress. Treaty of Madrid in 1526: a promise with no effects As a result of the Treaty of Tordesillas, Monaco was included in the Treaty of Madrid signed in 1526 between France and Spain. The intention was tu return any properties confiscated by the Kingdom of France to the Lord of Monaco. However, these provisions were never duly implemented. On the way to his crowning in Bologna, Emperor Charles V made a four-day stop in Monaco from August 5 to August 9, 1529, manifesting his benevolence. However, despite the appearance of support of the Emperor, who even suggested that Augustine Grimaldi should be raised to the cardinalate, it seems that the appearances were delusive, as little was done for Monaco. Meanwhile, Andrea Doria had changed sides and become a close ally of the Emperor too. AugustineGrimaldy sought to balance his alliance and secretly dealt with the Kingdom of France, before dying, in mysterious circumstances, in 1532. In December 1523, Francisco de Valenzuela was accredited as imperial resident in Monaco before being chased to Genoa by regent Etienne Grimaldi in May 1534, in an attempt to curtail the influence of Spain on Monaco. Thus, Etienne would later refuse another visit of the Emperor while welcoming Pope Paul III for a visit to Monaco in May 1538. Monaco was once again included in the Treaty of Crepy in 1544.
