Former hereditary title in the Spanish nobility
Duke of Franco (Spanish: Duque de Franco) was a hereditary title in the Spanish nobility. The title was created in 1975 by King Juan Carlos I and bestowed upon Carmen Franco, the daughter and only child of Spain's Caudillo, General Francisco Franco. Together with the dukedom, she received a coat of arms of new creation. These arms are a variation of the arms of Andrade family of Galicia, from whom Franco was descended through females. A Grandeeship was attached to the title.
