Gerung Of Meissen
Gerung (died 20 November 1170) was bishop of Meissen from 1152 to 1170, and previously abbot of Posa or Bosau Abbey. His time as bishop is particularly remembered for the treaty which he agreed in 1154 with the immigrant Flemish settlers in Kühren. Also during Gerung's time in office Vladislaus II, Duke of Bohemia, because of border disputes with the Margravate of Meissen, overran the territory of the bishopric and caused much destruction, for which when he became king he compensated the bishop. In 1160 Gerung took part with other bishops in an Imperial Diet in Erfurt, to discuss the suppression of the revolt in Milan against Emperor Frederick I. In 1163 he sat in judgment with the Emperor on the murderers of Archbishop Arnold of Selenhofen in Mainz, with serious consequences for the city, which suffered the loss of several important rights. Gerung fell ill during a visit to Petersberg Abbey and died there. His body was transported for burial to Meissen Cathedral Meissen C ...

Arnold Of Selenhofen
Arnold of Selenhofen (c. 1095/1100 – 24 June 1160) was the archbishop of Mainz from 1153 to his assassination in the Benedictine abbey St. Jakob, where he took shelter from the raging crowd. He was born to a wealthy Mainz family. He studied at the University of Paris and became the treasurer of the archdiocese of Mainz, then provost of the cathedral. Conrad III made him archchancellor of Germany in 1151 and Frederick Barbarossa made him archbishop in 1153. His administration of justice was unforgiving.

He was buried in the church of St. Maria ad gradus (St. Mary of the Steps). Literature * Johann Friedrich Böhmer Johann Friedrich Böhmer (22 April 179522 October 1863) was a German historian.

Albrecht I Of Meissen
Albrecht I of Meissen (died 1 August 1152) was Bishop of Meissen from 1150 to 1152.Early chroniclers added a Bishop Berthold between Bishop Reinward and Albrecht, but Machatschek after re-examining the evidence removed Berthold entirely, and had Albrecht follow immediately after Reinward. Similarly, a Bishop Bruno II was once considered Albrecht's successor, but Machatschek also showed that Bruno was an error, and that Albrecht's direct successor was Gerung. Life Albrecht I is not extensively documented. He was supposedly from a family of the Sorbian nobility. Before his elevation to the bishopric he was a cathedral provost. Otto von Freising mentions Albrecht in 1151 in connection with the dispute between Friedrich II of Berg and Herman van Horne over the office of bishop of Utrecht. With the agreement of the Pope, the bishopric of Meissen, like that of Naumburg, was under the protection of Burggraf Conrad I of Meissen, in return for which the bishops were expected to undertak ...

Archbishop Of Mainz
The Elector of Mainz was one of the seven Prince-electors of the Holy Roman Empire. As both the Archbishop of Mainz and the ruling prince of the Electorate of Mainz, the Elector of Mainz held a powerful position during the Middle Ages. The Archbishop-Elector was president of the electoral college, archchancellor of the empire, and the Primate of Germany as the papal legate north of the Alps, until the dissolution of the empire in 1806. The origin of the title dates back to 747, when the city of Mainz was made the seat of an archbishop, and a succession of able and ambitious prelates made the district under their rule a strong and vigorous state. Among these men were important figures in the history of Germany such as Hatto I, Adalbert of Mainz, Siegfried III, Peter of Aspelt and Albert of Brandenburg. There were several violent contests between rivals for the archbishopric, and their power struggles occasionally moved the citizens of Mainz to revolt. The lands of the elect ...
