Adolf III. from Dassel

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Adolf III. von Dassel was a notarized Count von Dassel between 1213 and 1244 .

He was a son of Adolf I von Dassel and Adelheid von Wassel . Hardly anything has been handed down about his work.

He was the only one in the Dassel family who married into the Lobdeburg family. In 1220 he was married to Elisabeth von Lobdeburg. Elisabeth was the daughter of Konrad von Lobdeburg and Mechthild von Meißen. Mechthild was already widowed in 1220, so that her daughter Elisabeth and her husband Adolf III. von Dassel appeared as a witness in a sales deed from 1220, in which Mechthild sold her property near Prittitz to the Naumburg Cathedral Chapter . Adolf III. and Elisabeth von Dassel had a daughter whose name has not been passed down, but who is known to have become a nun in the Beuditz Abbey. The Beuditz monastery near Weißenfels was created from a Mechthild foundation.

It is known that the House of Lobdeburg was repeatedly represented in the Diocese of Würzburg . Since in the second half of the 13th century Würzburg canons named Adolf and Ludolf von Dassel are notarized, historical research assumes that at least one of the two descendants of Adolf III. (Ludolf VII .; Adolf VI. then son of Adolf II. von Dassel ). Ludolf is mentioned for the last time in a document issued in 1275, in which he is referred to as archdeacon . Adolf was last recorded in 1290.

Elisabeth von Dassel was mentioned again in a document from 1258 when her husband Adolf III. had already passed away.
