Rugger

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Rugger († 1125 ) was Bishop of Würzburg from 1121 to 1125 .

Rugger was elected bishop in Münsterschwarzach by the anti-imperial party under the leadership of Adalbert I of Saarbrücken , Archbishop of Mainz. He competed with the opposing bishop Gebhard von Henneberg , who even survived him in this constellation, but was still unable to assert his influence. The engraver Johann Salver assigned the coat of arms of the Thundorf family to him in the 18th century .
