Wilbrand I of Loccum-Hallermund

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Wilbrand I. von Loccum-Hallermund (also: Wulbrand) (* around 1120, † 1167 ) was Count of Hallermund .

His father was Burchard I. von Loccum .

In 1148 he founded Schinna Monastery .

In 1163 he arranged for a monastery to be founded in his Loccum estate , which was built by Cistercian monks over many years as a "branch" of their Thuringian monastery Volkenroda .

He moved with the German army under Emperor Friedrich I (Barbarossa) against Pope Alexander . He died of the plague in July / August 1167 after the conquest of Rome in the camp of the German army outside Rome.

All of his sons died without descendants, Ludolf I in 1191 as a result of an injury during a knight tournament , Wilbrand II in 1189 on the Third Crusade . With that his noble family died out in the male line.

The inheritance thus fell to Wilbrand's daughter Adelheid , whose second marriage to Count Günter II of Käfernburg zu Schwarzburg brought the county into the possession of the von Kevernburg family .
