Duke of Plasencia (''Ducado de Plasencia'') is a hereditary title in the Spanish nobility. It was granted on 1476 by Queen Isabella I and King Ferdinand V of Castile, '' The Catholic Monarchs'', to Álvaro de Zúñiga y Guzmán, 2nd count of Plasencia and also 1st duke of Béjar, 1st duke of Arévalo and 1st count of Bañares, in acknowledgment for his loyalty during the War of Castilian Succession. The dukedom of Arévalo was forfeit, but those of Béjar and Plasencia where inherited by the descendants of the 1st duke and were held joinlty until the 19th century. In 1777, the two titles were inherited by María Josefa Pimentel, 14th Countess Duchess of Benavente and Duchess Consort of Osuna, so the dukedoms left the House of Zúñiga to enter into that of Osuna. After the death of the 12th duke of Osuna, all his titles were distributed by royal warrants among his numerous nephews, as Queen Isabella II didn't want the main heir presumptive, the duke of Alba, to accumulate such an immense amount of lands and titles. Then, the Dukedom of Plasencia was claimed and granted with grandeeship of Spain〔When the dukedom of Plasencia was split by royal decree from the dukedom of Béjar, which did held a grandeeship of Spain, Isabella II conferred it to the dukedom of Plasencia.

The next three dukes died without issue, so the title was claimed in 1962 by Ángela María Téllez-Girón, 16th Duchess of Osuna, who ceded it in 1974 to her second daughter, María de Gracia de Solís-Beaumont, the current holder of the title, married to Carlo Emanuele Ruspoli, 3rd Duke of Morignano. ==Dukes of Plasencia (1476-)== *Álvaro de Zúñiga, 1st Duke of Béjar and Plasencia (c. 1410-1588). *Álvaro de Zúñiga, 2nd Duke of Béjar and Plasencia (1455-1532), eldest son of the 1st duke's eldest son. *Teresa de Zúñiga, 3rd Duchess of Béjar and Plasencia (c. 1500-1565), only daughter of the 2nd duke's brother. *Francisco Diego de Zúñiga, 4th Duke of Béjar and Plasencia (c. 1530-1591), elder surviving son of the 3rd duchess. *Francisco Diego de Zúñiga, 5th Duke of Béjar and Plasencia (c. 1560-1601), eldest son of the 4th duke. *Alfonso Diego de Zúñiga, 6th Duke of Béjar and Plasencia (c. 1580-1620), second son of the 5th duke. *Francisco Diego de Zúñiga, 6th Duke of Béjar and Plasencia (c. 1596-1636), only son of the 6th duke. *Alfonso de Zúñiga, 8th Duke of Béjar and Plasencia (c. 1615-1660), eldest son of the 7th duke. *Juan Manuel de Zúñiga, 9th Duke of Béjar and Plasencia (c. 1620-1660), second son of the 7th duke. *Manuel Diego de Zúñiga, 10th Duke of Béjar and Plasencia (1657-1668), eldest son of the 9th duke. *Juan Manuel de Zúñiga, 11th Duke of Béjar and Plasencia (1680-1747), eldest son of the 10th duke. *Joaquín de Zúñiga, 12th Duke of Béjar and Plasencia (1715-1771), eldest son of the 11th duke. *María Josefa Pimentel, 12th Countess Duchess of Benavente and 13th Duchess of Bejar and Plasencia (1750-1834), great-granddaughter of the 10th duke's only sister. *Pedro de Alcántara Téllez-Girón, 11th Duke of Osuna and 14th Duke of Bejar and Plasencia (1810-1844), eldest son of the 13th duchess' eldest surviving son. *Mariano Téllez-Girón, 12th Duke of Osuna and 15th Duke of Bejar and Plasencia (1814-1882), second son of the 13th duchess' eldest surviving son. *María del Pilar Gayoso de los Cobos, 16th Duchess of Plasencia (1856-1939), granddaughter of the 13th duchess' seventh daughter. *Ignacio Fernández de Henestrosa, 17th Duke of Plasencia (1880-1948), elder son of the 16th duchess' eldest sister. *José María Martorell, 18th Duke of Plasencia〔''Boletín Oficial del Estado'': (no. 153, p. 9116 ), 27 June 1959.
