Burchard I of Loccum
Burchard I. von Loccum (* around 1090 in Loccum ; † 1130 ) was Count of Loccum and Count in southern Ambergau , Vogt of Gandersheim and Clus .
His mother was Akarina (also: Aliarina), her mother was Oda von Elsdorf, the grandmother was Ida von Elsdorf.
Burchard was a close friend of Lothar III. von Süpplingenburg and related by marriage to him. As a feudal man of Hermann I von Winzenburg , he rose to a high level through imperial favor and came to a county in Friesland . Because of building a castle, he got into a bitter argument with Hermann I von Winzenburg. In 1130 he had his stubborn vassals attacked and slain in a churchyard.
Hermann I von Winzenburg became Vogt of the Reinhausen Monastery, founded by his ancestors, in 1122 by inheritance on his mother's side. The first abbot of the Reinhausen monastery, Reinhard, wrote this down in 1153 at the latest in 1156 in a document about the foundation of the monastery and the family of the founders. In atonement for his father's deed, his son Hermann II of Winzenburg transferred his court in Derneburg to Bishop Bernhard I of Hildesheim in 1143, with the aim of being enfeoffed again with the Winzenburg. Hermann II von Winzenburg was only able to obtain the renewed enfeoffment of Winzenburg in 1150.
Burchard's son is Wilbrand I. von Loccum-Hallermund .
