Ulrich II came from the Radefeldt family . The addition "von" does not denote a nobility predicate, but rather indicates the place of his origin (today: Leipzig, OT Radefeld, North Saxony). Ulrich was a close relative of the previous bishop Withego I of Ostrau . Ostrau, near Schkeuditz , became a desert . Ulrich II studied in Prague and became the cathedral dean of Magdeburg .
