Life

Heinrich II was first mentioned in a document in 1275. Heinrich was knighted in 1289. In the disputes between King Adolf of Nassau and the Wettins , he and his father took part at the king's side and stayed in the royal camp of Borna on December 15, 1294 , when Count Palatine Rudolf near Rhine covered all the Vogt lines with his banner. In 1296, Heinrich the Böhme and the Burgrave Albert von Leisnig were appointed as administrators of the Freyburg an der Unstrut fort , which the king had pledged to the Bishop of Naumburg .

In 1301 Heinrich was appointed captain of Eger by King Albrecht von Habsburg . The last time Heinrich was mentioned together with his father and son in a document dated April 23, 1302. Shortly thereafter, Heinrich the Bohemian must have died; because in the deed of August 24, 1302, in which the Cronschwitz monastery was confirmed the purchase of goods in the village of Daßlitz north of Greiz , only his father Heinrich I, Vogt von Plauen, and his son Heinrich III. , called von Seeberg, as well as his nephew Heinrich II.
