Notizen zu dieser Person
Herman IV (died 1038) was the Duke of Swabia (1030-1038). He was the second son of Ernest I and Gisela of Swabia. He was one of the Babenberg dukes of Swabia. Herman became duke in 1030 following the death of his older brother Ernest II. At the time he was still a minor. Seven years later, his stepfather, the Emperor Conrad II, married him to Adelaide of Susa, the marchioness of Turin, in January 1037. In July of the next year, while campaigning with Conrad in Southern Italy, he was struck down by an epidemic near Naples. Conrad then transferred rule of the duchy to his own son, Henry I, while Adelaide remarried to Henry of Montferrat. He was buried in Trento Cathedral because the summer heat made it impossible to bring the corpse back to Germany.[1] Children Herman IV and Adelaide had at least three children (in the period of 18 months(!) - please check sources!): Gebhard I, Count of Sulzbach Adalbert I, Count of Windberg Adelaide, married Hermann von Peugen References ^ Iginio Rogger, "Riconsiderazioni sulla storia della Chiesa locale Trentina", in Lia de Finis (ed.), Storia del Trentino, Didascalibri, 1994, pp. 66-67.
