Liutgard von Zähringen
( - 9 Jul 1119)
According to Wikipedia:
Liutgard von Zähringen (also called Lütgard or Liutgard von Kärnten , * around 1047 , † July 9, around 1119 [1] or March 18, 1119 [2] ) was a countess from the family of the Zähringer . She was the only daughter of Berthold I of Zähringen and (probably) his first wife Richwara, daughter of Duke Konrad II of Carinthia . She became the wife of Diepold II of Vohburg and thus Margravine of Cham-Vohburg; their son was Diepold III. from Vohburg. After Diepold II's death, she is said to have married the Bavarian Count Ernst I von Grögling and again widowed around 1096/98 [3] ; however, this claim based on property-historical arguments is controversial.
Founding monasteries [ edit | Edit source ]
Liutgard was one of the founders of the Kastl monastery in 1102 [4] , together with her brother Gebhard III. von Zähringen , Bishop of Constance, and the other owners of Castle Kastl, Count Berengar von Sulzbach , Friedrich I. von Habsberg-Kastl and his son Count Otto von Habsberg-Kastl. Bishop Gerhard was originally a monk of Hirsau , from whom the Cluniac reform movement began, and became the leader of the opposition loyal to the Pope against Emperor Heinrich IV. Therefore, one can assume that Cluniac ideas were also shared by Liutgard. As the "soul of the foundation"entered the history of the monastery in Kastl. [5]
Together with her son Diepold III. In 1118 she was also the founder of the Reichenbach am Regen monastery , which was first settled by monks from the Kastl monastery.
