Gertrud von Comburg

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Gertrud von Comburg (* around 1095; † 1130/31) was a noblewoman.

Gertrud von Comburg was the daughter of Heinrich Graf von Comburg und Rothenburg and Geba, who was a daughter of Count Ebo von Mergentheim. Gertrud von Comburg was buried in the Benedictine abbey of Lorch . There are no indications that Hansmartin Decker-Hauff suspected the first marriage of the later Staufer King Konrad to Gertrud von Komburg.
