Charles of Anjou (1323-1348) was the eldest son of John, Duke of Durazzo and Agnes of Périgord.
He succeeded his father as Duke of Durazzo and Count of Gravina in 1336.
Alexandre Dumas, in his novel Joan of Naples, makes Charles a master of intrigue and treachery who engineers the death of Andrew and his assassins, only to meet his own death at the hands of the King of Hungary.
