NOTES:
Konrad I was Canon of Freiburg; succeeded his brother Berthold III as Duke of Zähringen in 1122.He became Protector
Bailiff of the Monastery St. Blasien in 1125, which he soon enlarged the importance of its powers.The St. Gallen monks
in 1122, which Konrad I was a companion of, sought his help on a matter at issue; which Konrad then [proceeded with
600 Knights and calmed the insurrection.
..
After lengthly deliberations (20 years realization) between King Heinrich V and Konrad I over the Bailiffship of the
Monastery St. Georgen and the Town of Schaffhausen (Nellenburger was founder of the town) (Henck, S. 448, 499),
Duke Friedrich III (de Büren, Count of Hohenstaufen) of Swabia granted Konrad I the same in 1148. Renouncing his
claim on the Dukedom of Swabia, perhaps aided him in the final settlement. (Vgl. Henck, S. 189f).
..
Konrad I was the founder of the Town Freiburg.With the settlement of the Bailiffship over St. Georgen and Schaffhausen,
this closed the great Possessions circle, which Konrad I was Protector of.He also tried to win the Rights over St. Gallen,
but lost. The Staufer Friedrich I pursued this course 50 years later.
..
Towards the dying out of the Salish House with King Heinrich V in 1125, Konrad I was found in the Imperial Courtyard
encampment.Since as Duke, he was considered a great leader,the new King Lothar II (Count of Walbeck, of Supplinburg)
(1075-1137)soon began to show attachment, reward and strengthen support through bestowal for greater advantages.
King Lothar in the surroundings of the Duke in 1126, at the Strassburger Imperial Diet (on which the Hohenstaufen Duke
Friedrich II was outlawed and put to the Bann) and otherwise in 1130-34, surrendered himself on the Speyer Imperial
Diet, the dukedom of East Juran Burgundy which he had extended to the great Bernhard and the southeran Zürich
District (Gau) which Konrad I already managed, the Castle Burgundy, were all bestowed on Konrad I, Duke of Zähringen.
Konrad I, known as Duke of BURGUNDY (bestowed on him in 1127 by King Lothar II) as were his successors, Berthold IV
and V, who named themselves "Duke of Burgundy"or"Rector of Burgundy", or "Duke & Rector of Burgundy"..
..
With the House of the Welfen, King Lothar likewise, equal of the Zäringers, founded many, and likewise always held
together.He had with Duke Konrad I in 1133, one passing discord, the Cousin's War (Emperor Lothar II's dau. Gertrud,
d. 1143 (Taf. 10/I & Taf. 38/III)m. 1127, Heinrich X the Proud de Este, Prince of Este, Duke of Bavaria (1126), of Saxony
(1136),1100-1139 (Taf. 11/I).Heinrich X was a brother of Sophia, who married Konrad I's brother Berthold III).Through
the saying of Welf VI, over the Heir of Rights of his wife, Uta, Countess of Calw (S. 18), lead the Counsin's War, which
Konrad I also felt injured.The Welf had the brother of Uta's mother beheaded, then he was in possession of the Strong-
hold Castle Schauenburg (by Oberkirch, Baden), which Pfalz Count Gottfried, Uta's father probably obtained in Rights
of Marriage to his Zäringer wife, and with the death of the Pfalz Count it fell on the House of Zäringen and the Welf
moved with war power before the castle; King Lothar raised the Siege.In Oct. 1133, King Lothar appeared in Mainz for
the peace agreement between Duke Konrad I and Welf VI and invested the Stronghold Schauenberg on Konrad I.
..
In Mar. 1138 the first Hohenstaufen King Konrad III (1093-1152) possessed the German throne and he soon called
Duke Konrad I to account.In June 1138, Duke Konrad I appeared before the highest splendour of the entire Imperial
Diet in Bamberg, presided over by the King, for he on the conclusion of this month in Regensburg, showed much
zealous.From then on it is believed that Duke Konrad I (one short continued feud in 1146) in narrow proportion to
the Hohenstaufen House.One constant companion of King Konrad III in the years 1138-44 and in the beginning of
1147; he followed the King towards Palestine in 1147 on the Crusade, and took up the Cross against the Slavics
(s. 82).
..
Of the combat which Duke Konrad I had in 1146 with the Hohenstaufen, it is recorded by Otto of Freisingen, "be sure
one panegyrist of the latter; the afterwards Duke Friedrich III (King Friedrich I) have through bravery and rich humor of
distinguished princes, fight against the Duke of Zähringen; as quick as lightening he secured the place of the Zäringers,
namely the Town Zürich (in Switzerland) and the land through to the Castle Zäringen".Meanwhile man finds the
Hohenstaufen, one reconciliation step to last, by which Konrad I in all his possessions and honour wider to become.
The duke attempted an attachment on the Hohenstaufen, meanwhile still in 1148, through Welf VI, than one long held
back aversion towards the new kings House, full reins, also Duke Konrad I and his son Berthold IV passionally pulled
in their alliance (S. 85).History indeed does not register that Konrad I, in 1150, succeeded, soon again to be found
violent, "how Welf VI towards the Hohenstaufen part to name".
..
The duke through his union with the Hohenstaufen with the outlook open, in addition to his East Juran Burgundy,
gained one main part of West Juran High Burgundy.Here Rainold III, Count of Macon (S. 293), did not accomplish
his Fief duties towards King Konrad III, which in turn, the Succession of his Rule and his Fief possessions were
bestowed on Duke Konrad I of Zäringen;this Count Rainold ignored.In order to obtain his new Possessions of
Burgundy, Konrad I first had to conqueror them for the Burgundian Count did not wish to yield.This produced such
violence that the Duke and the Count met in one personal combat, which lead to no results.Then Count Rainold
died Jan. 20, 1148, and Duke Konrad I did not live much longer for he became engaged in lower combats for the
greatest Rights from place to place in West Juran Burgundy. Duke Konrad I was Witness of one Docu. in Konstanz,
Jan. 07, 1152, and probably died there on Jan. 08, 1152 (18 days before the equal named German King Konrad III).
..
Through Rights of Marriage, Konrad I held two Castles and Possessions that formerly belonged to Klementia's
father, the powerful Count Gottfried of Namur; thus uniting both Burgundies.Towards his death, Konrad I
bequeathed his Fief Possessions to his son, Adalbert I.

..
Count Guntram's position on the Upper Rhein by Augen, was doubtless in the middle 900's, the most influentualist
and powerful dynasty in the Breisgau and in the Upper Elsass.His possessions were so distributed that he already
had roads right and left of the Rhein at decisive points between Kolmar and Riegel in the Breisgau under his control.
Burkheim gave him an advantage point to watch over the Rhein.
..
When the German King Otto I assumed power, he tried to order Count Guntram to return all of the old empire posses-
sions, whereby with these many rich possessions, Otto I could control many areas of land;in southeran Germany,
eastern France, Switzerland and Austria.At the time, there were many invaders inItaly and Otto I had his eye on
the Roman Imperial Insignia (Holy Roman Emperor).Having firm control over these lands, and the use of its' people
in his armies, he planned to march into Italy and expel the invaders. Count Guntram refused to yield up these rich
possessions, therefore, Otto I on Aug. 07, 952, called Guntram before the Imperial Diet in Augsburg to confess his
treason "ob reatum regiae infidelitatis".Bishop Uto of Strassburg, supporting Otto I, also spoke of Guntram's
guilt.His sentence was- that he lose all of those desired possessions that Otto I wanted.. Possesions in
Buggingen to the Bishopric Konstanz; east slope of the Tune Mountain to the Bishopric Konstanz, is out of one
bestowal of Heinrich II, to Basel.Otto I held the Monastery Einsiedeln.
..
Otto I in one Docu. of Liel on Einsiedeln in 952, entrusted the dukes dignity of Swabia on his son Liutdolf in 949.
Almost one year exact towards the judgement of Augsburg on Aug. 11, 953, Otto I gave one rank of possessions
of the Monastery Lorsch back to Guntram, who had received them under King Arnulf in 889, then as empire
possessions.
..
Exchequer Brumath with possessions in Mommenheim a.d. Zorn, nearby in Wahlenheim, in Eriez, towards the
Hagenauer Forest.Of the roads south of the Hagenau Forest, also Hüttenheim, out of Guntram possessions, the
great north-south road through the Elsass, Otto I have to the Burgundian Duke Rudolf.Likewise in 959, great
possessions of Guntram in and around Kolmar were transferred to Duke Rudolf.
..
On Mar. 01, 952, Otto I in Zürich confirmed his empire possessions of the Foundation St. Felix and Regula, in
Schlettstadt, Kinzheim and the surroundings;on Mar. 10, 952, documented he for Zürich and Chur, already in the
Pfalz, to Erstein in the Elsass.At this moment Otto I for the first time, gained unconditional influence of the
empire power on the Upper Rhein.For in 951/952 the German ruler had to battle for these possessions.Otto I
and his wife Adelheid, the Burgundian king's daughter were crowned with the Italian Crown, closing the distance
between the Alps Pass by Chur and the Burgundian area.His rule on the other side of the Alps outstanding and
the influence in the Burgundian territory he wished to extend, towards the Aare Valley, the territory of the Genser
Sea, the Rhone and the greater St. Bernhard he turns.Otto I in gaining all of these possessions, revived his
desire for the old Rights of the Crown on the Fiskal possessions.Kolmar and Brumath were former empire
possessions.
..
In 959, Otto placed the empire monastery in the Burgundian Pfore and he gave the Guntram possessions in the
reach of the Fiskus Kolmar to Duke Rudolf.With consent of the king, the Bishopric Chur possessions in Elsass
were given to the Burgundian King Konrad, also the possessions of the Monastery Schwarzach in the Ortenau
were exchanged.In 961/962, Queen Berta of Burgundy and her dau. Adelheid (wife of Otto I) erected the Monastery
Peterlingen in the Swiss middle lands, giving the possessions in Kolmar and Hüttenheim of Duke Rudolf to the
new monastery in Burgundy.Otto I and King Konrad of Burgundy in 967 moved towards Verona.
..
Count Guntram's family was related to the Carolingians, tracing back to the Etichonen House.
..
Otto I in 939 over the history of Breisach, drew onto the battlefield the French king, Duke Eberhard of Franken,
Giselbert of Lothringen and his own brother Heinrich.Otto I besieged the Rhein Island Stronghold Breisach.
Only by the deaths of Eberhard and Giselbert by Andernach on the Rhein, did Otto I gain complete possession.
In 953, Duke Konrad of Lothringen and Liudolf of Swabia wrestled Otto I loose from the refuge of the Stronghold
Breisach.At that time, Liudolf made friends with the Archbishop Friedrich of Mainz.Duke Hermann of Swabia
occupied the Stronghold Breisach (926-948), at which time the Breisach coinage began.

The House of Zäringen from which the former Grand Ducal family of Baden took its origin.The name is
derived from the Castle Zäringen, now in ruins, in the Village of that name, about two miles north of Freiburg
in the Black Forest (Schwarzerwald), Baden, Germany. The founders of the family were from the 8th and the
10th Century, Counts of the Breisgau (Breis District), but the history of the House realy began with Duke
Berchtold I the Bearded (d. 1078), who began the Rule in the beginning of the 11th Century.Berchtold II,
took the title of Duke of Zäringen in 1078.
..
Its political history began in 1112, when Hermann II de Zäringen, grandson of Berchtold I, assumed the title
of Margrave of Baden.The main line of the family became extinct in 1218, and their territories, which included
lands in Burgundy and Switzerland as well as Baden, were divided.A portion passed through the younger
branch of the House of the Counts of Kiburg (Kyburg), and the Counts of Urach (which the Fürstenbergs belong to),
and thence to the Habsburgs, to whom they were related.The remaining lands descended to the former reigning
family of Baden.It was not until 1771, that the lands were united under a single ruler, Charles Frederick.Under
him the country prospered, acquired more land, and under French protection it became a Grand Duchy, introduced
the Napoleonic Code, in 1806 joined the Rhineish League, and in 1813, the German Confederation.

NOTES:
Ulrichwhen old enough to learn he was sent to the monastic school of St. Gall, where he proved to be an excellent
scholar. He resolved to enter the priesthood, but was in doubt whether to enter the Benedictine Abbey of St. Gall or
to become a secular priest. He was sent before Apr. 910, for his further training to Adalbero, Bishop of Augsburg, who
made him a chamberlain.On Adalbero's death, Apr. 28, 910, Ulrich returned home, where he remained until the death
of Bishop Hiltine, Nov. 28, 923. Through the influence of his uncle, Duke Burchard of Alamannia, and other relatives,
Ulrich was appointed Bishop of Augsburg by King Henry, and was consecrated on Dec. 28, 923. He proved himself to
be a ruler who united severity with gentleness. He sought to improve the low moral and social condition of the clergy,
and to enforce a rigid adherence to the laws of the Church.Ulrich hoped to gain this end by periodical visitations, and
by building as many churches as possible, to make the blessings of religion more accessible to the common people.
His success was largely due to the good example he set his clergy and diocese.
..
Ulrich lived in the Castle Sunemotinga (Sulmetingen). Abbot of the Monastery Ottobeuren; Abbot of the Monastery
Kempten (948).
..
The generations of Ulrich and his nephews are all found in eastern Swabia. (MG Ribri Confr. Cod. aug. col. 179:

..
King Arnulf, Cup Bearer in the Duria District in 898, was constantly feuding with the King of Moravia, finally decided
that he had a solution. He signed a pact with the fierce Hungarians and brought them into his kingdom.This strategy
worked quite well for the king and during his lifetime, he had things mostly his way. Upon his death the Hungarians
were freed of the restrictions of staying in one kingdom and decided that they liked this part of the country.
..
In 907 they swarmed over the country like a plague of locusts. Their method of attack was so unorthodox to the
Germanic tribes that the Hungarians were able to sweep up everything in their path. The Germanics fought with
heavy swords and on foot, only the nobles were mounted. The Hungarians, on the other hand, were all mounted,
and they used the short bow which was handed down by the tribes of Ghenghis Khan. Riding full tilt into the
Germanics, the Hungarians would loose a voley of arrows, wheel about and feint a rapid retreat. When they had
sufficiently drawn the enemy off guard, they would turn suddenly and ride with great speed into the bewildered
opponents, slaughtering them where they stood. These tactics never failed and they swept over the entire country
up to Diessen. Stopping at the shores of the Ammersee to consolidate their gains. All the villages were put under
control of the Hungarians and the bishops as well as the sovereigns were forced to sign peace treaties that were
actually ultimatums.
..
By 926 they were ready to march on the fortified City of Augsburg. The terrified citizens prepared to evacuate the
entire city since they had heard the gruesome tales of the cruel brutality of the Slavic people.
..
The Bisop of Augsburg at that time was a fearless man named Ulrich, Count of Sulmetingen. He was highly
respected and the entire populace had great confidence in him. He urged the people to take a stand as he was
certain that, in some manner, they could prevent the barbaric Slavs from pillaging their city. While he prayed a
very unusual idea came to him. He rushed through the city, stopping everyone he could and told them to inform
the women to gather all their children and bring them to the church. Four hours later he had managed to notify
everyone in the city and as he made his way back to the church he noticed with satisfaction the streams of women
and children heading for the church. The Hungarians were still a few hours off and he had time to complete his plan.
..
Bishop Ulrich's unusual plan to save Augsburg from the Slavic hords was proceeding well. His call to the Citizens
of Augsburg to bring all the women and children to the Church was quickly heeded and Augsburg presented quite a
spectacle with the streams of women and children rushing towards the hugh city church. When all the people were
packed into the church he asked for silence and then told them that they must do exactly as he told them, regardless
of how foolish it seemed. They would just have to trust him.A courier notified the bishop that the Hungarians were
at the city gates.Bishop Ulrich then asked all the women and children to cry, scream, or screech as loud and as long
as they could.The amazed women did his bidding. Never had such a noise been heard before or since, historians say.
The screaming of children and the wailing of women was heard for miles around the city wall.
..
The barbarians paused, then completely stopped, bewildered and confused. This is something they had never
been confronted with. It was night and they did not plan to attack until morning. Hour after hour the heart rendering
cacophony continued as the Hungarians became more and more uncomfortable. Finally, towards morning they had
enough. Whether they had shown piety or were just plain unnerved, is not known, but they left without attempting to
attack the city of screaming women and screeching children.Bishop Ulrich was hailed as the Hero and Savior of the
City of Augsburg and its population.
..
For the next thirty years the Slavic people continued to occupy and fight continuous engagements with the Germanic
tribes. In 954 the beguiled Slavs decided that they had enough and would amount an allout attack but first they had to
know the exact strength of the Germanic tribes.The Holy Roman Empire was in existance at that time and Otto I was
king. He was a trusting gentleman and when the Slav ambassadors came to him with petitions of peace, he was only
too happy to sign.
..
The "ambassadors" were actually military officers with keen powers of observation and in traveling through the
country they were able to note not only the strength of the various forces but also their deployment. At the end of a
year they were satisfied with their plans and began to march.Augsburg was to be attacked by the largest force as
it was the best defended.Quickly town after town fell before the horde.Otto I hurriedly gathered his troops, took
personal command and began the long march towards Augsburg.
..
On Aug. 07, 955, the Hungarians struck Augsburg from the east but despite their number the valiant defenders held
them off.The battle ranged with mounting ferocity around the entire city now and it seemed that Augsburg would
certainly be destroyed but once again they did not reckon with the ingenuity of Bishop Ulrich. He picked the best
fighters and instructed them to seek out the various leaders and kill them. The skillful Augsburgers soon located
those who were directing the attack and the bewildered Hungarians saw their leaders dropping everywhere. They
immediately withdrew to the Lechfeld Plains.
..
*** (In 1808, one Hungarian sword was found buried in the earth in the town of Mering; a relic of the Battle of
Lechfeld by Augsburg on Aug. 10, 955 A.D., between Emperor Otto I, his troops and the Hungarians. The same Coat
of Arms was found from the year 1191, in the Village of Moringen (Burg Möring; Market Town Mering by Augsburg),
as was the name of Mering at that time..The shield background is golden with a silver wall and in the center, a
pinnacle ascends to a blackened point. Inside the pinnacle standing upright, one silver Hungarian sword)..

..
Having twice failed to take the city, the Slav hordes regrouped on the high plains near Lechfeld and prepared
their defenses for the battle which they knew eminent. This battle was to be a turning point in the history of the
entire Holy Roman Empire and would bring the Germanic tribes to a closer union. For the first time all tribes
were uniting against a common enemy under the leadership of one man, King Otto I. During the night Otto and
his troops arrived in Augsburg. The Hungarians decided to await the attack at Lechfeld. They formed their battle
lines which stretched for miles and miles across the country, which included the area were the Market Town of
Mering is still situated in 1973.
..
On Aug. 10, 955, the two armies smashed head on. The greatest and bloodiest battle in the history of Augsburg
began. The rays of the sun were obscured by the thousands of arrows that filled the air. Steel rang upon steel
and the terrifying cry of wounded and dying horses drowned out the shrieks of the wounded. The battle raged on
throughout the day and night. The fields were soon carpeted with the dead of both sides and the warrioers sloshed
ankle-deep in the curdled blood. Most weapons had been abandoned and the battle was now man to man.The
Germanics had the advantages here as they were stockier then the Hungarians. Fists flew, smashing faces, and
windpipes were torn from throats with clawing hands. Once an opponent fell, he was trampled into the soggy earth
with spikelike boots. Many on both sides fell from sheer exhaustion and were quickly smothered by their opponents.
By nine the next night the Hungarians gave up and made a hasty retreat. The hardly Augsburgers outflanked them
and met them on the other side of the Lech River administering the final blow that turned the retreat into a complete
route.
..
For weeks after the battle, the victorious citizens celebrated. Otto was the "hero" of the nation. Bishop Ulrich
ordered a Church constructed in his honor. Odes were composed in honor of the Great Otto who saved the Holy
Roman Empire. The Slavs were driven from Bavaria and they never returned. Actually Otto accomplished more
than just saving Augsburg. For the first time the boundaries of the Holy Roman Empire touched the boundaries
of Italy. This factor led in his being crowned Emperor in 962, by Pope John XII. Augsburg was peaceful. The city
was prosperous and happy, there seemed to be no reason for vigilance in the watchtowers. No one would attack
so strong a city.. (Suddenly in the Summer of 1088, the Duke Welf's troops swooped down on the surprised city,
killing people were they stood. No one was spared. Buildings were leveled to the ground. Throughout its history
the City of Augsburg was involved in numerous wars, but being so well established and having considerable
wealth within, it always managed to grow anew from the dust and ashes of war).
..
Emperor Otto I gave the Monastery Kempten to Abbot Ulrich, Count of Augsburg (Vita Udalbici).Rudolf, Count of
Rheinfelden is mentioned in Kempten.In 972 Abbot Giselfredus is named as successor to Abbot Ulrich.
