Life
Heinrich I came from a Swabian noble family . The eponymous Zipplingen is now part of the community of Unterschneidheim in the Ostalb district of Baden-Württemberg . Heinrich I von Zipplingen first appeared as a canon from Augsburg and Eichstätt, and in 1221 he was the cathedral scholaster of Eichstätt. His appointment as bishop could have been due to an appointment by the Pope, this thesis is supported by the debts of the diocese, which Henry I as bishop was able to pay off to a large extent. The bishop is documented several times on his travels, he was often in the king's entourage. Special occasions in which he participated included a. the wedding of Heinrich VII. with Margarete von Babenberg . After the assassination of Engelbert I of Cologne, he was counted on the guardianship council of the young King Heinrich VII. Construction work at Mörnsheim Castle was first mentioned in 1225. Also in 1225 he took part in the resignation of Abbot Konrad von Scheyern, forced by Duke Ludwig I of Bavaria , and in 1227 he was under investigation by Freising Bishop Gerold von Waldeck, who was accused of wastefulness .
