Reinold I. von Dassel

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Reinold I. von Dassel , also Reinhold (mentioned in a document 1113/1127), came from a noble-free family in southern Saxony that appeared suddenly from 1113 and named itself after its ancestral seat Dassel , in the county of the same name in today's Northeim district of Lower Saxony .

Life

According to the Helmhausen tradition code, Dietrich and Kunhild were his parents. His sister Helmburg is said to have been married to Dedi von Ziegenberg . He probably had a brother Johannes, the chancellor of King Konrad III. was.

He was the feudal man of the last Northeim Count Siegfried IV of Boyneburg and held jurisdiction in Suilbergau , later the County of Dassel. He was also his subordinate in the monasteries Corvey and Northeim .

Reinold came to rich estates through personal ability and could therefore call himself Graf. Thus he was the founder of the county of Dassel . He steadily expanded his domain. The basis for this were diverse official, feudal and family connections, which extended over the Solling with the county of Nienover to the upper Weser and Diemel to Hesse and on the other hand south to the northern Thuringia to the Lobdeburg Counts.

Marriage and children

Presumably he was married to Countess Mathilde von Schauenburg (* around 1100) and the following children probably emerged from this marriage:
