Pipino de Heristal:
De Wikipedia, la enciclopedia libre
Pipino (también Pipino, Pipino o Peppin) de Heristal (c. 635 - 16 de diciembre de 714) fue el alcalde del Palacio de Austrasia desde 680 hasta su muerte y de Neustria y Borgoña desde 687 hasta 695. También fue el primer alcalde del palacio en "reinar" como duque y príncipe de los francos y eclipsó con mucho a los rois fainéants merovingios.
Pipino, a veces llamado Pipino II, era el nieto y homónimo de Pipino I el Viejo por el matrimonio de la hija de Pipino I, Begga y Ansegisel, hijo de Arnulfo de Metz. Ese matrimonio unió las dos casas de los Pipínidos y los Arnulfings que crearon lo que se llamaría la dinastía carolingia. Pipino II nació probablemente en Herstal (Héristal), Bélgica moderna (donde estaba su centro de poder), de ahí su sobrenombre (a veces "de Heristal").
Como alcalde de Austrasia, Pipino y Martín, el duque de Laon, lucharon contra el alcalde de Neustrian Ebroin, que tenía planes en toda Frankland. Ebroin derrotó a los austrasianos en Lucofao (Bois-du-Fay, cerca de Laon) y estuvo cerca de unir a todos los francos bajo su gobierno; Sin embargo, fue asesinado en 681, víctima de un ataque combinado de sus numerosos enemigos. Pipino inmediatamente hizo las paces con su sucesor, Waratton.
Sin embargo, el sucesor de Waratton, Berthar, y el rey de Neustrian Theuderic III, quien, desde 679, era rey nominal de todos los francos, hicieron la guerra a Austrasia. El rey y su alcalde fueron derrotados decisivamente en la batalla de Tertry (Textrice) en Vermandois en 687. Berthar y Theuderic se retiraron a París, donde Pipino los siguió y finalmente les impuso un tratado de paz con la condición de que Berthar dejara su oficina. Pipino fue creado alcalde en los tres reinos francos (Austrasia, Neustria y Borgoña) y comenzó a llamarse a sí mismo duque y príncipe de los francos (dux et princeps Francorum). En las peleas que siguieron, Berthar mató a su suegra Ansfled y huyó. Su esposa Anstrude se casó con el hijo mayor de Pipino, Drogo, duque de Champaña, y el lugar de Pipino en Neustria fue asegurado.
[Otra versión, utilizando fuentes más contemporáneas, dice que para negociar la paz con Pépin, Anseflede hizo asesinar a su yerno y casó a su hija, Anstrudis (viuda de Berthechar), o a su nieta, Adaltrudis (hija de Berthechar y Anstrudis) con Drogo, hijo mayor de Pépin. Ver Anseflede, Anstrudis, Adaltrudis y los alcaldes del Palacio de Neustria Proyecto Sharon 2015]
Durante los siguientes años, Pipino sometió a los alamanes, frisones y franconios, llevándolos dentro de la esfera de influencia franca. También comenzó la evangelización de Alemania. En 695, colocó a Drogo en la alcaldía de Borgoña y a su otro hijo, Grimoaldo, en la de Neustrian.
Alrededor de 670, Pipino se había casado con Plectrude, que había heredado propiedades sustanciales en la región de Mosela. Fue la madre de Drogo de Champaña y Grimoaldo, quienes murieron antes que su padre. Sin embargo, Pipino también tuvo una amante llamada Alpaida (o Chalpaida) que le dio dos hijos más: Carlos y Childebrando. Justo antes de la muerte de Pipino, Plectrudio lo convenció de desheredar a sus bastardos en favor de su nieto, Theudoald, el hijo de Grimoaldo, que todavía era joven (y susceptible al control de Plectrude). Pipino murió repentinamente a una edad avanzada el 16 de diciembre de 714, en Jupille (en la actual Bélgica). Sus nietos legítimos afirmaron ser los verdaderos sucesores de Pipino y, con la ayuda de Plectrude, trataron de mantener la posición de alcalde del palacio después de la muerte de Pipino. Sin embargo, Carlos se había ganado el favor de los austrasianos, principalmente por su destreza militar y su capacidad para mantenerlos bien provistos de botín de sus conquistas. A pesar de los esfuerzos de Plectrude para silenciar al hijo de su rival encarcelándolo, se convirtió en el único alcalde del palacio y gobernante de facto de Francia después de una guerra civil que duró más de tres años después de la muerte de Pipino.

Duque de Brabante Duque de los francos austrasianos Después de derrotar a los nobles de Neustria en la batalla de Tertry (687), Pipino se hizo alcalde, o gobernante, de todos los reinos francos excepto Aquitania, con la dinastía merovingia conservando la realeza nominal. Derrotó a los frisones, los alamanes y los bávaros y estableció un gobierno fuerte, sentando así las bases para el imperio de sus descendientes, los alcaldes y reyes carolingios. o 640 Pipino el Joven, fue el bisabuelo de Carlomagno. Era nieto de Pipino el Viejo del matrimonio de Ansegisel y Begga, la hija del Viejo. Como alcalde del Palacio de Austrasia, Neustria y Borgoña de 680 a 714, gradualmente controló la corte franca. El rey merovingio Teodorico III intentó expulsar a Pipino de su puesto, pero fue derrotado en Tertry en 687. Pipino se convirtió en el gobernante real de Austrasia, manteniendo una fuerte influencia sobre los otros reinos francos. Sus descendientes continuaron sirviendo como alcaldes del palacio, convirtiéndose finalmente en los gobernantes legales de los reinos francos. Alrededor de 670, Pipino II se casó con Plectrude por su herencia de propiedades sustanciales en la región de Mosela. Tuvieron al menos dos hijos y a través de ellos al menos dos nietos significativos. Estos hijos y nietos legítimos afirmaron ser los verdaderos sucesores de Pipino y con la ayuda de su viuda Plectrude trató de mantener el cargo de alcalde de palacio después de la muerte de Pipino II el 16 de diciembre de 714.

Nacido: circa 635 en Lieja, Luik, Lieja, Bélgica, hijo de Ansegis=Ansegisus, duque d'Austrasie y Sainte Begge=Begga de Landen. Nota - entre 679 y 714: Los servicios del Palacio fueron asegurados por los Grandes [nobles], conocidos como "Optimates", frecuentemente criados a una edad muy temprana dentro del séquito del Rey. Debido a que la tarea de los Canerarii era vigilar la cámara del rey y el precioso tesoro guardado en ella, era lógico que se le dieran atributos financieros. Como el oficial mayor era el senescal [senescallus] se le dio la tarea de supervisar el ejército. El trabajo de los Comes Stabuli era vigilar los establos del rey. Había otros basados en diversas tareas. El cargo más singular era el del Mayor Domus, frecuentemente llamado Alcalde de Palacio. Originalmente, este era solo un asistente cuyo trabajo era mantener niveles apropiados de existencias y suministros, y coordinar las actividades de otro personal en el palacio del rey. A principios de 679, Dagoberto II, que había regresado de un exilio en Irlanda, intentó gobernar Austrasia con la ayuda de su alcalde de palacio, Goufaud. Los Grandes prefieren a Pipino II, nieto de Pipino de Landen. A finales de 679, Dagoberto II muere en un "accidente" de caza. Pipino II fue el alcalde de palacio de Austrasie de 679 a 714. En 680, Ebroin y Thierry III de Neustria luchan y obligan a Pipino II a huir a Leucofao, cerca de Bois-du-Fay en las Ardenas. Cuando Pipino II reconoce a Thierry III como el único rey de la Galia, la guerra entre los dos se suspende durante unos 3 años. En Tertry, a tres leguas de Saint-Quentin, Pipino II luchó y venció a Thierri III, rey de Neustrie y en 687 tomó ese reino. Es en ese momento que comienza a ser conocido como Pipino de Herstal o d'Heristal. También está claro que en ese momento, el cargo de Mayor Domus se había vuelto esencialmente hereditario y que creció en poder a medida que el del Rey declinaba. Pipino II dirigió una serie de expediciones contra los frisons [derrotando al duque Radbod en 689 y enviándolos a Willibrod para convertirlos al cristianismo], los alamanes [a quienes derrota cerca del lago de Constanza en 690] y los bávaros [que se sometieron a Pipino II en 691]. Cuando Norberto, alcalde de Neustria y de Borgoña murió [a quien Pipino II había designado en 688], alrededor del año 700, Pipino instaló a su propio hijo, Grimoaldo = Grimaud. Casado antes de 685: Plectrud d'Echternach, hija de Hugobert=Humbert d'Echternach e Irmina. Casado antes de 686: Aupais=Alpaide. Los historiadores reconocen a Alpaís como la única concubina de Pipino II, lo que parece bastante modesto para un personaje de su estatus en ese momento. Murió: el 16 de diciembre de 714 en Jupile-sur-Meuse, Bélgica.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pepin (also Pippin, Pipin, or Peppin) of Herstal (c. 635 – 16 December 714) was the Mayor of the Palace of Austrasia from 680 to his death and of Neustria and Burgundy from 687 to 695. He was also the first mayor of the palace to "reign" as Duke and Prince of the Franks and he by far overshadowed the Merovingian rois fainéants.
Pepin, sometimes called Pepin II, was the grandson and namesake of Pepin I the Elder by the marriage of Pepin I's daughter Begga and Ansegisel, son of Arnulf of Metz. That marriage united the two houses of the Pippinids and the Arnulfings which created what would be called the Carolingian dynasty. Pepin II was probably born in Herstal (Héristal), modern Belgium (where his centre of power lay), whence his byname (sometimes "of Heristal").
As mayor of Austrasia, Pepin and Martin, the duke of Laon, fought the Neustrian mayor Ebroin, who had designs on all Frankland. Ebroin defeated the Austrasians at Lucofao (Bois-du-Fay, near Laon) and came close to uniting all the Franks under his rule; however, he was assassinated in 681, the victim of a combined attack by his numerous enemies. Pepin immediately made peace with his successor, Waratton.
However, Waratton's successor, Berthar, and the Neustrian king Theuderic III, who, since 679, was nominal king of all the Franks, made war on Austrasia. The king and his mayor were decisively defeated at the Battle of Tertry (Textrice) in the Vermandois in 687. Berthar and Theuderic withdrew themselves to Paris, where Pepin followed and eventually forced on them a peace treaty with the condition that Berthar leave his office. Pepin was created mayor in all three Frankish kingdoms (Austrasia, Neustria, and Burgundy) and began calling himself Duke and Prince of the Franks (dux et princeps Francorum). In the ensuing quarrels, Berthar killed his mother-in-law Ansfled and fled. His wife Anstrude married Pepin's eldest son Drogo, Duke of Champagne, and Pepin's place in Neustria was secured.
[Another version - using more contemporaneous sources - says that in order to negotiate peace with Pépin, Anseflede had her son-in-law murdered and married either her daughter, Anstrudis (widow of Berthechar), or her granddaughter, Adaltrudis (daughter of Berthechar and Anstrudis) to Drogo, eldest son of Pépin.See Anseflede, Anstrudis, Adaltrudis & the Mayors of the Palace of Neustria Project Sharon 2015]
Over the next several years, Pepin subdued the Alemanni, Frisians, and Franconians, bringing them within the Frankish sphere of influence. He also began the evangelisation of Germany. In 695, he placed Drogo in the Burgundian mayorship and his other son, Grimoald, in the Neustrian one.
Around 670, Pepin had married Plectrude, who had inherited substantial estates in the Moselle region. She was the mother of Drogo of Champagne and Grimoald, both of whom died before their father. However, Pepin also had a mistress named Alpaida (or Chalpaida) who bore him two more sons: Charles and Childebrand. Just before Pepin's death, Plectrude convinced him to disinherit his bastards in favour of his grandson, Theudoald, the son of Grimoald, who was still young (and amenable to Plectrude's control). Pepin died suddenly at an old age on 16 December 714, at Jupille (in modern Belgium). His legitimate grandchildren claimed themselves to be Pepin's true successors and, with the help of Plectrude, tried to maintain the position of mayor of the palace after Pepin's death. However, Charles had gained favor among the Austrasians, primarily for his military prowess and ability to keep them well supplied with booty from his conquests. Despite the efforts of Plectrude to silence her rival's child by imprisoning him, he became the sole mayor of the palace and de facto ruler of Francia after a civil war which lasted for more than three years after Pepin's death.

Pepin of Heristol (Liege, Belgium); Mayor Of The Palace Of Austrasia.
Pepin of Herstal (635?-714), Carolingian mayor of the palace, who reunited the Frankish realms in the late Merovingian period. A grandson of Pepin the Elder, he succeeded to his position in the kingdom of Austrasia around 680. In 687 he extended Carolingian rule to the other Frankish kingdoms, Neustria and Burgundy, but retained members of the Merovingian dynasty as figurehead monarchs in all three. Two years later he extended his control over the Frisians, a pagan people living on the North Sea coast. Pepin's death was followed by a civil war and the succession of his illegitimate son Charles Martel. Source: 'Pepin of Herstal,' Microsoft (R) Encarta. Copyright (c) 1993 Microsoft Corporation.

Duke of Brabant Duke of the Austrasian Franks After defeating the nobles of Neustria at the battle of Tertry (687), Pepin made himself mayor, or ruler, of all the Frankish kingdoms except Aquitaine, with the Merovingian dynasty retaining the nominal kingship. He defeated the Frisians, the Alemanni, and the Bavarians and established a strong government, thus laying the foundation for the empire of his descendants, the Carolingian mayors and kings. or 640 Pippin the Younger, was Charlemagne's great-grandfather. He was the grandson of Pippin the Elder from the marriage of Ansegisel and Begga, the daughter of the Elder. As the Mayor of the Palace of Austrasia, Neustria and Burgundy from 680 to 714, he gradually controlled the Frankish court. The Merovingian king Theuderic III attempted to oust Pepin from his post, but he was defeated at Tertry in 687. Pepin then became the actual ruler of Austrasia, keeping a strong influence over the other Frankish kingdoms. His descendants continued to serve as Mayors of the Palace, eventually becoming the legal rulers of the Frankish kingdoms. Around 670, Pippin II married Plectrude for her inheritance of substantial estates in the Moselle region. They produced at least two children and through them at least two significant grandchildren. These legitimate children and grandchildren claimed themselves to be Pepin's true successors and with the help of his widow Plectrude tried to maintain the position of Mayor of the Palace after Pepin II's death on December 16, 714. However, Charles Martel, Pippin's son by his mistress, Alpaida (or Chalpaida), had gained favour among the Austrasians, primarily for his military prowess and ability to keep them well supplied with booty from his conquests. Despite the efforts of Plectrude to silence her rival's child by imprisoning him, he became the sole Mayor of the Palace and de facto ruler of Francia. (From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)

Carolingian mayor of the palace, who reunited the Frankish realms in the late Merovingian period. A grandson of Pepin the Elder, he succeeded to his position in the kingdom of Austrasia around 680. In 687 he extended Carolingian rule to the other Frankish kingdoms, Neustria and Burgundy, but retained members of the Merovingian dynasty as figurehead monarchs in all three. Two years later he extended his control over the Frisians, a pagan people living on the North Sea coast. Pepin's death was followed by a civil war and the succession of his illegitimate son Charles Martel.

Originally, this was only an attendant whose job was to maintain appropriate levels of stocks and supplies, and to coordinate the activities of other personnel in the King's palace. In early 679, Dagobert II, who had returned form an exile in Ireland, attempted to govern Austrasia with the help of his Mayor of the Palace, Goufaud. The Greats prefer Pepin II, grand-son of Pepin de Landen. By the end of 679, Dagobert II is killed in a hunting "accident". Pepin II was the Mayor-of-the-Palace of Austrasie from 679 to 714. In 680, Ebroin and Thierry III of Neustria fight and force Pepin II to flee at Leucofao, near Bois-du-Fay in the Ardennes. When Pepin II recognizes Thierry III as the only King of Gaule, the war between the two is suspended for about 3 years. At Tertry three leagues from Saint-Quentin, Pepin II fought and beat Thierri III, King of Neustrie and in 687 took that kingdom. It is at that time that he begins to be known as Pepin de Herstal or d'Heristal. It is also clear that by that time, the office of Major Domus had become essentially hereditary and that it grew in power as that of the King's declined. Pepin II directed a number of expeditions against the Frisons [defeating Duke Radbod in 689 and sending them Willibrod to convert them to Christianity] , the Alamanians [whom he defeats near Lake Constance in 690] and the Bavarois [who submitted to Pepin II in 691] .

Historians recognize Alpais as Pepin II's one concubine, which seems rather modest for a personage of his status at that time. Died: on 16 Dec 714 in Jupile-sur-Meuse, Belgium.

Pépin II de Herstal ou Pépin le Jeune (vers 653- 16 décembre 714) est maire du palais d'Austrasie. Il est le fils d'Ansegisèle (lui-même fils de Saint Arnoul) et de Begga, fille de Pépin Ier.
Gros propriétaire terrien, il jouit d'un grand nombre de fidèles qui vont faire sa force et celle de ses successeurs. Il se montre plus prudent que son oncle Grimoald Ier et ne tente pas de placer sa famille au lieu des Mérovingiens.
Mais après l'assassinat de Dagobert II par Ebroïn, il prend la tête de l'aristocratie austrasienne. Contre les prétentions hégémoniques du maire du Palais Ébroïn, il attaque la Neustrie et se fait battre près de Laon.
Après la mort d'Ébroïn en 681, il se reconcilie avec le maire du palais de Neustrie Waratton, reconnaît pour roi Thierry III, puis se brouille avec Berchaire, gendre et successeur de Waratton, et bat définitivement les Neustriens à Tertry en 687.
Pépin II reconnaît alors de nouveau Thierry III mais s'établit comme maire du Palais du royaume franc entier, qu'il gouverne jusqu'à sa mort. Il impose alors l'autorité franque sur les Alamans, les Frisons et les Franconiens, et apporte son aide aux premières missions d'évangélisation en Germanie.
Sa succession est difficile, ses fils Drogon de Champagne et Grimoald II étant morts avant lui : plutôt que ses petit-fils Thibaut, Arnoul et Hugues, que soutient leur grand-mère Plectrude, c'est un fils illégitime de Pépin, Charles Martel, qui prend le pouvoir. Charles Martel, grand-père de Charlemagne était né de l'union adultère de Pépin II de Herstal et d'Alpaïde.
Cette union est à l'origine de l'assassinat de Lambert, évêque de Tongres-Maastricht, futur saint Lambert, patron de Liège. En septembre d'une année dont les historiens ne parviennent pas à se mettre d'accord, 696 ou 705, Pépin II convie l'évêque dans son palais de Jupille, près de Liège, dans le but de lui demander de l'unir à Alpaïde. Pépin venait de répudier Plectrude mais l'évêque avait eu vent qu'un enfant était né hors mariage. Il refusa donc de les marier. Quelques jours plus tard, le 17 septembre, Lambert et ses neveux, Pierre et Andolet, sont assassinés par Dodon, frère d'Alpaïde, en représailles à son refus. Le 17 septembre est aujourd'hui la fête de la Saint-Lambert, évêque martyr.

Pepin (also Pippin, Pipin, or Peppin) of Herstal, or Heristal, (635/45 – 16 December 714) was the Mayor of the Palace of Austrasia from 680 to his death and of Neustria and Burgundy from 687 to 695. He was also the first mayor of the palace to "reign" as Duke and Prince of the Franks and he by far overshadowed the Merovingian rois fainéants. [edit] Biography
Pepin, sometimes called Pepin II and Pepin the Middle was the grandson and namesake of Pepin I the Elder by the marriage of Pepin I's daughter Begga and Ansegisel, son of Arnulf of Metz. That marriage united the two houses of the Pippinids and the Arnulfings which created what would be called the Carolingian dynasty. Pepin II was probably born in Herstal (Héristal), modern Belgium (where his centre of power lay), whence his byname (sometimes "of Heristal").
As mayor of Austrasia, Pepin and Martin, the duke of Laon, fought the Neustrian mayor Ebroin, who had designs on all Francia. Ebroin defeated the Austrasians at Lucofao (Bois-du-Fay, near Laon) and came close to uniting all the Franks under his rule; however, he was assassinated in 681, the victim of a combined attack by his numerous enemies. Pepin immediately made peace with his successor, Waratton.
However, Waratton's successor, Berthar, and the Neustrian king Theuderic III, who, since 679, was nominal king of all the Franks, made war on Austrasia. The king and his mayor were decisively defeated at the Battle of Tertry (Textrice) in the Vermandois in 687. Berthar and Theuderic withdrew themselves to Paris, where Pepin followed and eventually forced on them a peace treaty with the condition that Berthar leave his office. Pepin was created mayor in all three Frankish kingdoms (Austrasia, Neustria, and Burgundy) and began calling himself Duke and Prince of the Franks (dux et princeps Francorum). In the ensuing quarrels, Berthar killed his mother-in-law Ansfled and fled. His wife Anstrude married Pepin's eldest son Drogo, Duke of Champagne, and Pepin's place in Neustria was secured. Base silver coin of Nemfidius, patriarch of Provence, 700-710, minted at Marseille during the reign of Pepin of Herstal.
Over the next several years, Pepin subdued the Alemanni, Frisians, and Franconians, bringing them within the Frankish sphere of influence. He also began the evangelisation of Germany. In 695, he placed Drogo in the Burgundian mayorship and his other son, Grimoald, in the Neustrian one. St Hubert of Liège offers his services to Pepin of Heristal.
Around 670, Pepin had married Plectrude, who had inherited substantial estates in the Moselle region. She was the mother of Drogo of Champagne and Grimoald II, both of whom died before their father. However, Pepin also had a mistress named Alpaida (or Chalpaida) who bore him two more sons: Charles and Childebrand. Just before Pepin's death, Plectrude convinced him to disinherit his bastards in favour of his grandson, Theudoald, the son of Grimoald, who was still young (and amenable to Plectrude's control). Pepin died suddenly at an old age on 16 December 714, at Jupille (in modern Belgium). His legitimate grandchildren claimed themselves to be Pepin's true successors and, with the help of Plectrude, tried to maintain the position of mayor of the palace after Pepin's death. However, Charles had gained favour among the Austrasians, primarily for his military prowess and ability to keep them well supplied with booty from his conquests. Despite the efforts of Plectrude to silence her rival's child by imprisoning him, he became the sole mayor of the palace—and de facto ruler of Francia—after a civil war which lasted for more than three years after Pepin's death.

Duke of Brabant Duke of the Austrasian Franks After defeating the nobles of Neustria at the battle of Tertry (687), Pepin made himself mayor, or ruler, of all the Frankish kingdoms except Aquitaine, with the Merovingian dynasty retaining the nominal kingship. He defeated the Frisians, the Alemanni, and the Bavarians and established a strong government, thus laying the foundation for the empire of his descendants, the Carolingian mayors and kings. or 640 Pippin the Younger, was Charlemagne's great-grandfather. He was the grandson of Pippin the Elder from the marriage of Ansegisel and Begga, the daughter of the Elder. As the Mayor of the Palace of Austrasia, Neustria and Burgundy from 680 to 714, he gradually controlled the Frankish court. The Merovingian king Theuderic III attempted to oust Pepin from his post, but he was defeated at Tertry in 687. Pepin then became the actual ruler of Austrasia, keeping a strong influence over the other Frankish kingdoms. His descendants continued to serve as Mayors of the Palace, eventually becoming the legal rulers of the Frankish kingdoms. Around 670, Pippin II married Plectrude for her inheritance of substantial estates in the Moselle region. They produced at least two children and through them at least two significant grandchildren.

Mais après l'assassinat de Dagobert II par Ebroïn, il prend la tête de l'aristocratie austrasienne. Contre les prétentions hégémoniques du maire du Palais Ébroïn, il attaque la Neustrie et se fait battre près de Laon.
Après la mort d'Ébroïn en 681, il se reconcilie avec le maire du palais de Neustrie Waratton, reconnaît pour roi Thierry III, puis se brouille avec Berchaire, gendre et successeur de Waratton, et bat définitivement les Neustriens à Tertry en 687.
Pépin II reconnaît alors de nouveau Thierry III mais s'établit comme maire du Palais du royaume franc entier, qu'il gouverne jusqu'à sa mort. Il impose alors l'autorité franque sur les Alamans, les Frisons et les Franconiens, et apporte son aide aux premières missions d'évangélisation en Germanie.
Sa succession est difficile, ses fils Drogon de Champagne et Grimoald II étant morts avant lui : plutôt que ses petit-fils Thibaut, Arnoul et Hugues, que soutient leur grand-mère Plectrude, c'est un fils illégitime de Pépin, Charles Martel, qui prend le pouvoir. Charles Martel, grand-père de Charlemagne était né de l'union adultère de Pépin II de Herstal et d'Alpaïde.
Cette union est à l'origine de l'assassinat de Lambert, évêque de Tongres-Maastricht, futur saint Lambert, patron de Liège. En septembre d'une année dont les historiens ne parviennent pas à se mettre d'accord, 696 ou 705, Pépin II convie l'évêque dans son palais de Jupille, près de Liège, dans le but de lui demander de l'unir à Alpaïde. Pépin venait de répudier Plectrude mais l'évêque avait eu vent qu'un enfant était né hors mariage. Il refusa donc de les marier. Quelques jours plus tard, le 17 septembre, Lambert et ses neveux, Pierre et Andolet, sont assassinés par Dodon, frère d'Alpaïde, en représailles à son refus. Le 17 septembre est aujourd'hui la fête de la Saint-Lambert, évêque martyr.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pepin (also Pippin, Pipin, or Peppin) of Herstal (c. 635 – 16 December 714) was the Mayor of the Palace of Austrasia from 680 to his death and of Neustria and Burgundy from 687 to 695. He was also the first mayor of the palace to "reign" as Duke and Prince of the Franks and he by far overshadowed the Merovingian rois fainéants.
Pepin, sometimes called Pepin II, was the grandson and namesake of Pepin I the Elder by the marriage of Pepin I's daughter Begga and Ansegisel, son of Arnulf of Metz. That marriage united the two houses of the Pippinids and the Arnulfings which created what would be called the Carolingian dynasty. Pepin II was probably born in Herstal (Héristal), modern Belgium (where his centre of power lay), whence his byname (sometimes "of Heristal").
As mayor of Austrasia, Pepin and Martin, the duke of Laon, fought the Neustrian mayor Ebroin, who had designs on all Frankland. Ebroin defeated the Austrasians at Lucofao (Bois-du-Fay, near Laon) and came close to uniting all the Franks under his rule; however, he was assassinated in 681, the victim of a combined attack by his numerous enemies. Pepin immediately made peace with his successor, Waratton.
However, Waratton's successor, Berthar, and the Neustrian king Theuderic III, who, since 679, was nominal king of all the Franks, made war on Austrasia. The king and his mayor were decisively defeated at the Battle of Tertry (Textrice) in the Vermandois in 687. Berthar and Theuderic withdrew themselves to Paris, where Pepin followed and eventually forced on them a peace treaty with the condition that Berthar leave his office. Pepin was created mayor in all three Frankish kingdoms (Austrasia, Neustria, and Burgundy) and began calling himself Duke and Prince of the Franks (dux et princeps Francorum). In the ensuing quarrels, Berthar killed his mother-in-law Ansfled and fled. His wife Anstrude married Pepin's eldest son Drogo, Duke of Champagne, and Pepin's place in Neustria was secured.
[Another version - using more contemporaneous sources - says that in order to negotiate peace with Pépin, Anseflede had her son-in-law murdered and married either her daughter, Anstrudis (widow of Berthechar), or her granddaughter, Adaltrudis (daughter of Berthechar and Anstrudis) to Drogo, eldest son of Pépin.See Anseflede, Anstrudis, Adaltrudis & the Mayors of the Palace of Neustria Project Sharon 2015]
Over the next several years, Pepin subdued the Alemanni, Frisians, and Franconians, bringing them within the Frankish sphere of influence. He also began the evangelisation of Germany. In 695, he placed Drogo in the Burgundian mayorship and his other son, Grimoald, in the Neustrian one.
Around 670, Pepin had married Plectrude, who had inherited substantial estates in the Moselle region. She was the mother of Drogo of Champagne and Grimoald, both of whom died before their father. However, Pepin also had a mistress named Alpaida (or Chalpaida) who bore him two more sons: Charles and Childebrand. Just before Pepin's death, Plectrude convinced him to disinherit his bastards in favour of his grandson, Theudoald, the son of Grimoald, who was still young (and amenable to Plectrude's control). Pepin died suddenly at an old age on 16 December 714, at Jupille (in modern Belgium). His legitimate grandchildren claimed themselves to be Pepin's true successors and, with the help of Plectrude, tried to maintain the position of mayor of the palace after Pepin's death. However, Charles had gained favor among the Austrasians, primarily for his military prowess and ability to keep them well supplied with booty from his conquests. Despite the efforts of Plectrude to silence her rival's child by imprisoning him, he became the sole mayor of the palace and de facto ruler of Francia after a civil war which lasted for more than three years after Pepin's death.

Pepin of Heristol (Liege, Belgium); Mayor Of The Palace Of Austrasia.
Pepin of Herstal (635?-714), Carolingian mayor of the palace, who reunited the Frankish realms in the late Merovingian period. A grandson of Pepin the Elder, he succeeded to his position in the kingdom of Austrasia around 680. In 687 he extended Carolingian rule to the other Frankish kingdoms, Neustria and Burgundy, but retained members of the Merovingian dynasty as figurehead monarchs in all three. Two years later he extended his control over the Frisians, a pagan people living on the North Sea coast. Pepin's death was followed by a civil war and the succession of his illegitimate son Charles Martel. Source: 'Pepin of Herstal,' Microsoft (R) Encarta. Copyright (c) 1993 Microsoft Corporation.

Duke of Brabant Duke of the Austrasian Franks After defeating the nobles of Neustria at the battle of Tertry (687), Pepin made himself mayor, or ruler, of all the Frankish kingdoms except Aquitaine, with the Merovingian dynasty retaining the nominal kingship. He defeated the Frisians, the Alemanni, and the Bavarians and established a strong government, thus laying the foundation for the empire of his descendants, the Carolingian mayors and kings. or 640 Pippin the Younger, was Charlemagne's great-grandfather. He was the grandson of Pippin the Elder from the marriage of Ansegisel and Begga, the daughter of the Elder. As the Mayor of the Palace of Austrasia, Neustria and Burgundy from 680 to 714, he gradually controlled the Frankish court. The Merovingian king Theuderic III attempted to oust Pepin from his post, but he was defeated at Tertry in 687. Pepin then became the actual ruler of Austrasia, keeping a strong influence over the other Frankish kingdoms. His descendants continued to serve as Mayors of the Palace, eventually becoming the legal rulers of the Frankish kingdoms. Around 670, Pippin II married Plectrude for her inheritance of substantial estates in the Moselle region. They produced at least two children and through them at least two significant grandchildren. These legitimate children and grandchildren claimed themselves to be Pepin's true successors and with the help of his widow Plectrude tried to maintain the position of Mayor of the Palace after Pepin II's death on December 16, 714. However, Charles Martel, Pippin's son by his mistress, Alpaida (or Chalpaida), had gained favour among the Austrasians, primarily for his military prowess and ability to keep them well supplied with booty from his conquests. Despite the efforts of Plectrude to silence her rival's child by imprisoning him, he became the sole Mayor of the Palace and de facto ruler of Francia. (From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)

Born: circa 635 in Liege, Luik, Liege, Belgium, son of Ansegis=Ansegisus, Duke d'Austrasie and Sainte Begge=Begga de Landen . Note - between 679 and 714: The services of the Palace were ensured by the Greats [nobles] , known as "Optimates", frequently brought up at a very young age within the King's entourage. Because the Canerarii's task was to watch over the King's chamber and the precious treasure kept in it, it was logical that he should be given financial attributes. Since the eldest officer was the seneschal [senescallus] he was given the task of overseeing the army. The Comes Stabuli' job was to watch over the King's stables. There were others based on various tasks. The most singular office was that of Major Domus, frequently called Mayor of the Palace. Originally, this was only an attendant whose job was to maintain appropriate levels of stocks and supplies, and to coordinate the activities of other personnel in the King's palace. In early 679, Dagobert II, who had returned form an exile in Ireland, attempted to govern Austrasia with the help of his Mayor of the Palace, Goufaud. The Greats prefer Pepin II, grand-son of Pepin de Landen. By the end of 679, Dagobert II is killed in a hunting "accident". Pepin II was the Mayor-of-the-Palace of Austrasie from 679 to 714. In 680, Ebroin and Thierry III of Neustria fight and force Pepin II to flee at Leucofao, near Bois-du-Fay in the Ardennes. When Pepin II recognizes Thierry III as the only King of Gaule, the war between the two is suspended for about 3 years. At Tertry three leagues from Saint-Quentin, Pepin II fought and beat Thierri III, King of Neustrie and in 687 took that kingdom. It is at that time that he begins to be known as Pepin de Herstal or d'Heristal. It is also clear that by that time, the office of Major Domus had become essentially hereditary and that it grew in power as that of the King's declined. Pepin II directed a number of expeditions against the Frisons [defeating Duke Radbod in 689 and sending them Willibrod to convert them to Christianity] , the Alamanians [whom he defeats near Lake Constance in 690] and the Bavarois [who submitted to Pepin II in 691] . When Norbert, Mayor of Neustria and of Burgundy died [whom Pepin II had designated in 688] , circa 700, Pepin installed his own son, Grimoald=Grimaud. Married before 685: Plectrud d'Echternach, daughter of Hugobert=Humbert d'Echternach and Irmina. Married before 686: Aupais=Alpaide. Historians recognize Alpais as Pepin II's one concubine, which seems rather modest for a personage of his status at that time. Died: on 16 Dec 714 in Jupile-sur-Meuse, Belgium. -------------------- Pipin Heristalilainen (Pipin II eli Pipin Keskimmäinen) (640/650–16. joulukuuta 714) oli Austrasian, Neustrian ja Burgundin major domus 680–714.

Pépin II de Herstal ou Pépin le Jeune (vers 653- 16 décembre 714) est maire du palais d'Austrasie. Il est le fils d'Ansegisèle (lui-même fils de Saint Arnoul) et de Begga, fille de Pépin Ier.

He was also the first mayor of the palace to "reign" as Duke and Prince of the Franks and he by far overshadowed the Merovingian rois fainéants. [edit] Biography
Pepin, sometimes called Pepin II and Pepin the Middle was the grandson and namesake of Pepin I the Elder by the marriage of Pepin I's daughter Begga and Ansegisel, son of Arnulf of Metz. That marriage united the two houses of the Pippinids and the Arnulfings which created what would be called the Carolingian dynasty. Pepin II was probably born in Herstal (Héristal), modern Belgium (where his centre of power lay), whence his byname (sometimes "of Heristal").
As mayor of Austrasia, Pepin and Martin, the duke of Laon, fought the Neustrian mayor Ebroin, who had designs on all Francia. Ebroin defeated the Austrasians at Lucofao (Bois-du-Fay, near Laon) and came close to uniting all the Franks under his rule; however, he was assassinated in 681, the victim of a combined attack by his numerous enemies. Pepin immediately made peace with his successor, Waratton.
However, Waratton's successor, Berthar, and the Neustrian king Theuderic III, who, since 679, was nominal king of all the Franks, made war on Austrasia. The king and his mayor were decisively defeated at the Battle of Tertry (Textrice) in the Vermandois in 687. Berthar and Theuderic withdrew themselves to Paris, where Pepin followed and eventually forced on them a peace treaty with the condition that Berthar leave his office. Pepin was created mayor in all three Frankish kingdoms (Austrasia, Neustria, and Burgundy) and began calling himself Duke and Prince of the Franks (dux et princeps Francorum). In the ensuing quarrels, Berthar killed his mother-in-law Ansfled and fled. His wife Anstrude married Pepin's eldest son Drogo, Duke of Champagne, and Pepin's place in Neustria was secured. Base silver coin of Nemfidius, patriarch of Provence, 700-710, minted at Marseille during the reign of Pepin of Herstal.
Over the next several years, Pepin subdued the Alemanni, Frisians, and Franconians, bringing them within the Frankish sphere of influence. He also began the evangelisation of Germany. In 695, he placed Drogo in the Burgundian mayorship and his other son, Grimoald, in the Neustrian one. St Hubert of Liège offers his services to Pepin of Heristal.
Around 670, Pepin had married Plectrude, who had inherited substantial estates in the Moselle region. She was the mother of Drogo of Champagne and Grimoald II, both of whom died before their father. However, Pepin also had a mistress named Alpaida (or Chalpaida) who bore him two more sons: Charles and Childebrand. Just before Pepin's death, Plectrude convinced him to disinherit his bastards in favour of his grandson, Theudoald, the son of Grimoald, who was still young (and amenable to Plectrude's control). Pepin died suddenly at an old age on 16 December 714, at Jupille (in modern Belgium). His legitimate grandchildren claimed themselves to be Pepin's true successors and, with the help of Plectrude, tried to maintain the position of mayor of the palace after Pepin's death. However, Charles had gained favour among the Austrasians, primarily for his military prowess and ability to keep them well supplied with booty from his conquests. Despite the efforts of Plectrude to silence her rival's child by imprisoning him, he became the sole mayor of the palace—and de facto ruler of Francia—after a civil war which lasted for more than three years after Pepin's death.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pepin_of_Herstal
Pepin II (c. 635 – 16 December 714), commonly known as Pepin of Herstal, was a Frankish statesman and military leader who de facto ruled Francia as the Mayor of the Palace from 680 until his death. He took the title Duke and Prince of the Franks upon his conquest of all the Frankish realms. The son of the powerful Frankish statesman, Ansegisel, Pepin worked to establish his family, the Pippinids, as the strongest in Francia. He was able to realise his dreams by becoming Mayor of the Palace in Austrasia in 680. Pepin subsequently embarked on several wars to expand his power. He united all the Frankish realms by the conquests of Neustria and Burgundy in 687. In foreign conflicts, Pepin increased the power of the Franks by his subjugation of the Alemanni, the Frisians, and the Franconians. He also began the process of evangelisation in Germany. Pepin's statesmanship was notable for the further diminution of Merovingian royal authority, and for the acceptance of the undisputed right to rule for his family. Therefore, Pepin was able to name as heir his grandson Theudoald. But this was not accepted by his powerful son Charles Martel, leading to a civil war after his death in which the latter emerged victorious.
