The French titles of Count Maret and Duke of Bassano were created by Emperor Napoleon I, in 1807 and 1809 respectively, for Hugues-Bernard Maret, a French diplomat and statesman. The ducal title refers to Bassano del Grappa in Italy.
Both titles became extinct in 1906, upon the death of the first duke's grandson.
