      General Notes:

      Ezzo eller var pfalzgreve i Lothringen.

      Han stammet fra en greveslekt som bodde i Bonnregionen. Hans far var i det 10. århundre i besittelse av det lothringske Pfalz-grevskapet. Dette sto i forbindelse med Pfalz i Achen.

      Ezzo hadde eiendommer i Thüringen og Østfranken og nevnes først som pfalzgreve i dokumenter fra 1020. Han opptråtte på Otto III's side.

      Ezzo døde på sin eiendom Saalfeld etter sigende ca. 90 år gammel.

      Research Notes:

      Ezzo or Ehrenfried (c. 954 - March 21, 1024), count palatine in Lorraine, was the son of a certain Hermann (d. c. 1000), also a count palatine in Lorraine who had possessions in the neighbourhood of Bonn.

      Having married Matilda (d. 1025), a daughter of the emperor Otto II, Ezzo came to the front during the reign of his brother-in-law, the emperor Otto III. (983-1002); his power was increased owing to the liberal grant of lands in Thuringia and Franconia which he received with his wife, and some time later his position as count palatine was recognized as an hereditary dignity. Otto's successor, the emperor Henry II, was less friendly towards the powerful count palatine, though there was no serious trouble between them until 1011; but some disturbances in Lorraine quickly compelled the emperor to come to terms, and the assistance of Ezzo was purchased by a gift of lands.

      Henceforward the relations between Henry and his vassal appear to have been satisfactory. Very little is known about Ezzo's later life, but we are told that he died at a great age at Saalfeld on the 21st of March 1024. He left three sons, among them being Hermann, who was archbishop of Cologne from 1036 to 1056, and Otto, who was for a short time duke of Swabia; and seven daughters, six of whom became abbesses. Ezzo founded a monastery at Brauweiler near Cologne, the place where his marriage had been celebrated. This was dedicated in 1028 by Piligrim, archbishop of Cologne, and here both Ezzo and his wife were buried. 3

      Noted events in his life were:

      Lothrangian Count Palatine

      http://www.nationmaster.com/encyclopedia/Ezzo

      --------------------

      Ezzo (c. 955 – 21 March 1034), sometimes called Erenfried, Count Palatine of Lotharingia of the Ezzonen dynasty, was the son of Herman I.

      Having married Matilda of Germany (died 1025), a daughter of Emperor Otto II and Theophanu, Ezzo became prominent during the reign of his brother-in-law, Emperor Otto III. His power was increased due to the liberal grant of lands in Thuringia and Franconia which his wife received out of Ottonian possessions. Candidate to the imperial throne at the death of Otto III, he received huge territories (Kaiserswerth, Duisburg, and Saalfeld) for renouncing to the throne, making him the most powerful man in the empire after the emperor. Otto's successor, Emperor Henry II, was less friendly towards the powerful count, although there was no serious trouble between them until 1011. Some disturbances in Lotharingia quickly forced the emperor to come to terms, and Ezzo's assistance was purchased with additional imperial fiefs.

      After this, the relations between Henry and his vassal appear to have been satisfactory. Very little is known about Ezzo's later life, but we are told that he died at a great age at Saalfeld on 21 March 1034.

      Ezzo founded Brauweiler Abbey near Cologne, the place where his marriage had been celebrated. It was dedicated in 1028 by Piligrim, archbishop of Cologne. Ezzo and his wife were buried at Brauweiler.

      [edit]Children

      He and Mathilda left three sons and seven daughters:

      Liudolf (c. 1000–10 April 1031), Count of Zütphen.

      Otto I (died 1047), Count Palatine of Lotharingia and later Duke of Swabia as Otto II.

      Hermann II (995–1056), Archbishop of Cologne.

      Theophanu (died 1056), Abbess of Essen and Gerresheim.

      Richeza of Lotharingia (died 21 March 1063), Queen of Poland, married with King Mieszko II of Poland.

      Adelheid (died c. 1030), Abbess of Nijvel (Nivelles).

      Heylwig, Abbess of Neuss.

      Mathilde, Abbess of Dietkirchen and Villich.

      Sophie, Abbess of St. Maria, Mainz.

      Ida (died 1060), Abbess of Cologne and Gandersheim Abbey (founded in 852 by her ancestor Liudolf, Duke of Saxony).

      Leben [Bearbeiten]

      Die Eltern von Ezzo waren Pfalzgraf Hermann I. von Lothringen († 996) und Heylwig/Heilwig von Dillingen. Ezzo heiratete Mathilde (um 979–1025), die Tochter des Kaisers Otto II..

      Um eine standesgemäße Versorgung der Kaisertochter zu sichern, erhielt Ezzo zahlreiche Grafschaften und Vogteien, unter anderem den Auelgau oder die Waldenburg im Sauerland, aber auch die Reichsdomäne Saalfeld und den Orlagau, zu dem damals auch die Gebiete südwestlich von Saalfeld bis zum Gebirgskamm gehörten.

      Er kontrollierte die großen Fernwege, z.B. mit Hilfe der Tomburg bei Rheinbach (ab 1000) und des Siegburger Michaelsberges. Damit begann ein Machtkampf mit dem Erzbistum Köln.

      1024 gründeten die Eheleute das Benediktinerkloster Brauweiler, in dem beide auch beigesetzt sind.

      Nachkommen [Bearbeiten]

      Aus der Ehe mit Mathilde sind zehn Kinder hervorgegangen:

      * Hermann II. (995–1056), Erzbischof von Köln von 1035 bis 1056.

      * Richeza (um 994–1063), 1013 verheiratet mit Mieszko II. Lambert, König von Polen († 1034).

      * Ludolf von Brauweiler und Waldenburg (um 998–1031).

      * Otto (um 998–1047), Pfalzgraf von Lothringen 1035–1045 und Herzog von Schwaben zwischen 1045 und 1047.

      * Adelheid, Stiftsdame, möglicherweise Äbtissin von Nijvel (Nivelles).

      * Ida, Äbtissin von Maria im Capitol in Köln und von Stift Gandersheim.

      * Theophanu, Äbtissin von Stift Essen und Stift Gerresheim.

      * Heylwig/Heilwig, Äbtissin von Neuss, Vilich und Dietkirchen (gegenüber Vilich auf der anderen Rheinseite)

      * Sophia/Sophie († vor 1031)

      * Mathilde, Äbtissin von Dietkirchen und Vilich.
