Wigger II.
Wigger II. Is documented as a count in the Thuringian region from at least 997 to 1009 . He was probably a son of Margrave Wigger I , but only partially inherited his father, for example as Count in Westergau ( Germarmark ) and in Weitagau . The other large parts of the rule of the elder Wigger went to the Margraves Rikdag and Ekkehard I of Meissen .
In 1009, Wigger had Archbishop Willigis of Mainz consecrated a church he had built in Dorla, and on this occasion decreed that the church and all of his allod property in the Dorla village should go to the Archbishopric of Mainz after his death.
