Hartmann V. von Dillingen († July 4th / 5th, 1286 ) was Bishop of Augsburg from 1248 to 1286 .

origin

Hartmann came from the Swabian family of the Counts of Dillingen , who were wealthy in the Danube region and who held the bailiwick of the imperial city of Ulm . He was the youngest son of Count Hartmann IV of Dillingen († 1258) and Willibirgis († before 1248). The family also came from the Augsburg bishop Walter I (1133–1152) and the Constance bishops Eberhard I , Warmann and Ulrich I.

Life

Hartmann was canon in Augsburg in 1246/47 . After Pope Innocent IV deposed Bishop Siboto von Seefeld, who was loyal to the Hohenstaufen , he was appointed Bishop of Augsburg in 1248. Because Augsburg was in the hands of the Staufers, it was only consecrated in 1256. In the conflict between the Staufers and the Pope, Hartmann's family, along with Count Ulrich I of Württemberg and Hartmann II of Grüningen, were among the most important opponents of King Conrad IV.

In his diocese he was a patron of the monasteries and hospitals. He allowed the mendicant orders of the Dominicans , Franciscans and Carmelites to provide pastoral care in his diocese. Since 1256 he had been in dispute with Ludwig II of Bavaria over the bailiwick of the bishopric , was finally able to prevail in 1270, but lost the bailiwick again to the empire in 1276. In the feud with Ludwig III. von Oettingen around the bailiwick of the Neresheim monastery was decided against him by an arbitration court headed by Albertus Magnus . Schwigger II von Mindelberg captured him in 1266 and burned down his Strasbourg castle .

After the deaths of his brother Adalbert (1257) and his father Hartmann IV (1258), he inherited a large part of the remaining Dillingen property in addition to his brothers-in-law, which largely passed to the bishopric of Augsburg in 1258 and 1286, respectively. With Hartmann's death in 1286, the dynasty of the Counts of Dillingen died out.

Hartmann was buried in front of the cross altar in Augsburg Cathedral .
