Conrado II, emperador del Sacro Imperio Romano Germánico.
Conrado II (c. 990 - 4 de junio de 1039) fue hijo del conde Enrique de Espira y Adelheid de Alsacia. Fue elegido rey en 1024 y coronado emperador del Sacro Imperio Romano Germánico el 26 de marzo de 1027, el primer emperador de la dinastía Salia.
Conrado II está enterrado en la cripta de la catedral de Speyer.
Durante su reinado, demostró que la monarquía alemana se había convertido en una institución viable. La supervivencia de la monarquía ya no dependía de los contratos entre nobles soberanos y territoriales.
Enrique, conde de Espira, padre de Conrado II, era nieto de Luitgard, hija del emperador Otón I, que se había casado con el duque salio Conrado el Rojo de Lorena. Conrado creció pobre según los estándares de la nobleza y fue criado por el obispo de Worms. Tenía fama de ser prudente y firme por la conciencia de la privación. En 1016 se casó con Gisela de Suabia, duquesa viuda. Ambas partes afirmaban ser descendientes de Carlomagno y, por lo tanto, estaban lejanamente emparentadas. Los canonistas estrictos se opusieron al matrimonio, y el emperador Enrique II utilizó esto para obligar a Conrado a exiliarse temporalmente. Se reconciliaron, y a la muerte de Enrique en 1024, Conrado se presentó como candidato ante la asamblea electoral de príncipes en Kamba, en Renania. Fue elegido por la mayoría y fue coronado rey en Maguncia el 8 de septiembre de 1024.
Los obispos italianos rindieron homenaje en la corte de Conrado en Constanza en junio de 1025, pero los príncipes laicos trataron de elegir a Guillermo III (V), duque de Aquitania, como rey en su lugar. Sin embargo, a principios de 1026 Conrado fue a Milán, donde Ariberto, arzobispo de Milán, lo coronó rey de Italia. Después de vencer cierta oposición de las ciudades, Conrado llegó a Roma, donde el papa Juan XIX lo coronó emperador en la Pascua de 1027.
Confirmó formalmente las tradiciones jurídicas populares de Sajonia y promulgó nuevas constituciones para Lombardía. En 1028, en Aquisgrán, hizo elegir a su hijo Enrique y lo ungió rey de Alemania. Enrique se casó con Cunigunde o Gunhilda, hija del rey Canuto el Grande de Inglaterra, Dinamarca y Noruega. Este era un arreglo que Conrado había hecho muchos años atrás, cuando le dio a Canuto las Grandes partes del norte de Alemania para que las administrara. Enrique, el futuro emperador Enrique III, se convirtió en el principal consejero de su padre.
Cuando Rodolfo III, rey de Borgoña, murió el 2 de febrero de 1032, legó su reino, que combinaba dos reinos anteriores de Borgoña, a Conrado. A pesar de cierta oposición, los nobles borgoñones y provenzales rindieron homenaje a Conrado en Zúrich en 1034. Este reino de Borgoña, que bajo los sucesores de Conrado se conocería como el Reino de Arlés, correspondía a la mayor parte del barrio sureste de la Francia moderna e incluía el oeste de Suiza, el Franco Condado y el Delfinado. No incluía el pequeño Ducado de Borgoña al norte, gobernado por una rama cadete del rey Capeto de Francia. (Poco a poco, durante los siglos siguientes, la mayor parte del antiguo Reino de Arlés se incorporó a Francia, pero el Rey de Arlés siguió siendo uno de los títulos subsidiarios del Emperador del Sacro Imperio Romano Germánico hasta la disolución del Imperio en 1806).
En 1039 Conrado cayó enfermo y murió en Utrecht.
Nota: La dinastía siana sucedió a la dinastía sajona. Los francos salios eran un subgrupo de los francos que habían estado viviendo al norte y al este de las limas en la zona costera holandesa. A partir del siglo V emigraron a través de Bélgica y al norte de Francia, luego formaron un reino en el norte de Francia y en las costas al norte de ella. Este reino fue el núcleo del futuro Reino de Francia.
Se distinguen de los francos ripuarios. Se cree que el nombre Ripuarian significa "habitante del río". El nombre salio puede referirse a la sal y, por extensión, al mar, es decir, "habitante del mar". Alternativamente, puede derivar del nombre romano de un río en los Países Bajos: Isala, una rama del Rin actualmente llamada IJssel en holandés. En el siglo III d.C., los romanos pudieron haber nombrado a la tribu germánica que vivía en esta zona con el nombre de este río. Incluso hoy en día, esta zona se llama Salland.

Conrado II (c. 990 - 4 de junio de 1039) era hijo de un noble de nivel medio en Franconia, el conde Enrique de Espira y Adelaida de Alsacia, que heredó los títulos de conde de Espira y de Worms cuando era un niño cuando Enrique murió a la edad de veinte años. A medida que maduraba, llegó a ser bien conocido más allá de su base de poder en Worms y Espira, por lo que cuando la línea sajona murió y la monarquía elegida para el reino alemán quedó vacante, fue elegido rey de Alemania en 1024 a la respetable edad de treinta y cuatro años y coronado emperador del Sacro Imperio Romano Germánico el 26 de marzo de 1027. 1024, convirtiéndose en el primero de los cuatro reyes y emperadores de la dinastía Salia.

BIOGRAFÍA: c. 990 d. 4 de junio de 1039, Utrecht, Alemania, Sacro Imperio Romano Germánico Rey alemán (1024-39) y emperador del Sacro Imperio Romano Germánico (1027-39), fundador de la dinastía Salia. Durante su reinado, demostró que la monarquía alemana se había convertido en una institución viable. Dado que la supervivencia de la monarquía ya no dependía principalmente de un pacto entre los nobles soberanos y territoriales, en adelante era invulnerable a una rebelión prolongada por su parte. Conrado era hijo del conde Enrique de Espira, que había sido pasado por alto en sus herencias en favor de un hermano menor. Enrique era descendiente, a través del matrimonio de su bisabuelo Conrado el Rojo con una hija del emperador Otón, de la casa sajona. Dejado en la pobreza, Conrado fue criado por el obispo de Worms y no recibió mucha educación formal; pero, consciente de las privaciones sufridas por él y su padre, maduró pronto. Prudente y firme, a menudo mostraba una gran caballerosidad, así como un fuerte sentido de la justicia, y estaba decidido a ganar el estatus que la fortuna le había negado. En 1016 se casó con Gisela, duquesa viuda de Suabia y descendiente de Carlomagno. Conrado, sin embargo, tenía un parentesco lejano con Gisela. Cuando los canonistas estrictos se opusieron al matrimonio, el emperador Enrique II, que estaba celoso del crecimiento de la influencia personal de Conrado, utilizó sus hallazgos como excusa para obligar a Conrado a exiliarse temporalmente. Los dos hombres se reconciliaron más tarde y, cuando Enrique II murió, en 1024, Conrado se presentó a la asamblea electoral de los príncipes en Kamba en el Rin como candidato a la sucesión. Después de prolongados debates, la mayoría votó por él y fue coronado rey en Maguncia el 8 de septiembre de 1024. Inteligente y genial, Conrad también fue afortunado. Poco después de su elección, incluso la oposición minoritaria fue persuadida de rendirle homenaje. A principios del año siguiente, la repentina muerte de Boleslao I el Bravo de Polonia, un tributario de la monarquía alemana que se había autoproclamado un rey independiente, evitó a Conrado la necesidad de interferencia militar. En Alemania, a una rebelión fomentada por nobles y parientes de Conrado se unieron muchos príncipes laicos de Lombardía; y, aunque los obispos italianos rindieron homenaje en una corte de Constanza en junio de 1025, los príncipes laicos trataron de elegir a Guillermo de Aquitania como antirreno. Pero, cuando el rey de Francia rechazó su apoyo, la rebelión se derrumbó. A principios de 1026, Conrado pudo ir a Milán, donde el arzobispo Ariberto lo coronó rey de Italia. Después de breves combates, Conrado venció la oposición de algunas ciudades y nobles y logró llegar a Roma, donde fue coronado emperador por el papa Juan XIX en la Pascua de 1027. Cuando una nueva rebelión en Alemania lo obligó a regresar, sometió a los rebeldes y les impuso severas penas, sin perdonar a los miembros de su propia familia. Conrado no sólo mostró fuerza y justicia incorruptible en el mantenimiento de su poder, sino que también mostró iniciativa en la legislación. Confirmó formalmente las tradiciones legales populares de Sajonia y emitió un nuevo conjunto de constituciones feudales para Lombardía. El domingo de Pascua de 1028, en una corte imperial de Aquisgrán, hizo que su hijo Enrique fuera elegido y ungido rey. En 1036 Enrique se casó con Kunigunde, hija del rey Canuto de Inglaterra. Con el tiempo, se volvió inseparable de su padre y actuó como su principal consejero. Por lo tanto, la sucesión estaba prácticamente asegurada, y el futuro de la nueva casa parecía brillante. Mientras tanto, Conrado se había visto obligado, después de todo, a hacer campaña contra Polonian 1028. Después de duros combates, Mieszko, hijo y heredero de Boleslaw, se vio obligado a firmar la paz y entregar las tierras que el predecesor de Conrado había perdido. Aun así, Conrado tuvo que continuar la campaña en el este, y en 1035 sometió a los litutianos paganos. Aunque ocupado intermitentemente en el este, Conrado fue capaz de obtener triunfos políticos en el oeste. Anteriormente, el rey Rodolfo de Borgoña, sin hijos, había ofrecido la sucesión de su corona al emperador Enrique II, quien, sin embargo, murió antes que Rodolfo. Así, cuando Rodolfo murió en 1032, dejó su reino a Conrado a pesar de la oposición de los príncipes borgoñones, que dos años más tarde, el 1 de agosto de 1034, rindieron homenaje a Conrado en Zúrich. Aunque las relaciones de Conrado con su hijo siguieron siendo estrechas, el rey Enrique a veces mostró una iniciativa independiente. Una vez firmó una paz por separado con el rey Esteban de Hungría y en otra ocasión juró al duque Adalbero de Carintia que nunca se pondría de su lado. Así, cuando Conrado se enemistó con Adalbero en 1035, el juramento de Enrique tensó severamente las relaciones entre padre e hijo. Conrado logró vencer el partidismo de su hijo sólo humillándose ante él. Al final, la determinación de Conrad prevaleció y Adalbero fue debidamente castigado. En 1036 Conrado apareció por segunda vez en Italia, donde procedió con igual vigor contra su antiguo aliado, el arzobispo Ariberto de Milán. Italia estaba desgarrada por las disensiones entre los grandes príncipes, quienes, junto con sus vasallos, los capitanei, habían reprimido tanto a los caballeros como a los burgueses de las ciudades, los valvassores. Conrado defendió los derechos de los valvassores, y, cuando Ariberto, afirmando ser el par del emperador, rechazó la interferencia legislativa de Conrado, Conrado lo hizo arrestar. Sin embargo, Ariberto logró escapar y logró levantar una rebelión en Milán. A través de la suerte y la hábil diplomacia, Conrado logró aislar a Ariberto de sus partidarios lombardos, así como de sus amigos en Lorena. Conrado pudo así dirigirse en 1038 al sur de Italia, donde instaló príncipes amigos en Salerno y Anversa y nombró al alemán Richer como abad de Montecassino. A su regreso a Alemania el mismo año a lo largo de la costa adriática, su ejército sucumbió a una epidemia de verano en la que murieron tanto su nuera como su hijastro. El propio Conrado llegó a Alemania sano y salvo y celebró varias cortes importantes en Solothurn (donde su hijo Enrique fue investido con el reino de Borgoña), en Estrasburgo y en Goslar. Cayó enfermo al año siguiente (1039) y murió.

Conrad II (c. 990–June 4, 1039) was the son of a mid-level nobleman in Franconia, Count Henry of Speyer and Adelaide of Alsace, who inherited the titles of count of Speyer and of Worms as an infant when Henry died at age twenty. As he matured he came to be well known beyond his power base in Worms and Speyer, so when the Saxon line died off and the elected monarchy for the German realm stood vacant, he was elected King of Germany in 1024 at the respectably old age of thirty-four years and crowned emperor of the Holy Roman Empire on March 26, 1027, becoming the first of four kings and emperors of the Salian Dynasty.

During his reign, he proved that the German monarchy had become a viable institution. Survival of the monarchy was no longer dependent on contracts between sovereign and territorial nobles.
The father of Conrad II, Henry of Speyer was a grandson of Liutgarde, a daughter of the great Emperor Otto I who had married the Salian Duke Conrad the Red of Lorraine.
Despite his bloodline in that age when people died young and younger, the orphaned Conrad grew up poor by the standards of the nobility and was raised by Burchard, Bishop of Worms.
He was reputed to be prudent and firm out of consciousness of deprivation. In 1016, he married Gisela of Swabia, a widowed duchess. Both parties claimed descent from Charles the Great (Charlemagne) and were thus distantly related.
Strict canonists took exception to the marriage, and Emperor Henry II used this to force Conrad into temporary exile.
They became reconciled, and upon Henry's death in 1024, Conrad appeared as a candidate before the electoral assembly of princes at Kamba, an historical name for an area on the East banks of the river Rhine and opposite to the German town Oppenheim (Today the position of Kamba is marked by a small monument, which displays Conrad on a horse). He was elected by the majority and was crowned king in Mainz on September 8, 1024, arguably in the prime of life. It was equally obvious that the Saxon line of Emperors was at an end, and all of Europe speculated and maneuvered to influence the Prince-electors in unseemly disrespect for the aging Henry II. That same year, Conrad commissioned the construction of the Speyer Cathedral in Speyer which was started in 1030.
The Italian bishops paid homage at Conrad's court at Konstanz in June 1025, but lay princes sought to elect William V of Aquitaine, as king instead. However early in 1026 Conrad went to Milan, where Ariberto, archbishop of Milan, crowned him king of Italy. After overcoming some opposition of the towns Conrad reached Rome, where Pope John XIX crowned him emperor on Easter, 1027.
Politics
He formally confirmed the popular legal traditions of Saxony and issued new constitutions for Lombardy. In 1028 at Aachen he had his son Henry elected and anointed king of Germany. Henry married Gunhilda of Denmark, daughter of King Canute the Great of England, Denmark and Norway by Emma of Normandy. This was an arrangement that Conrad had made many years prior, when he gave Canute the Great parts of northern Germany to administer[citation needed]. Henry, the later Emperor Henry III, became chief counselor of his father.
Conrad campaigned unsuccessfully against Poland in 1028-1030, but in 1031 in a combined action with the Kievan Rus' forced King Mieszko II, son and heir of Bolesław I, to make peace and return the land that Bolesław had conquered from the Empire during Henry II's reign. Mieszko II was compelled to give up his royal title and for the remainder of his troubled rule became the Duke of Poland and Conrad's vassal.
In 1029 some Bavarian border conflicts undermined the good relations with Stephen I of Hungary. One year later Conrad launched a campaign against Hungary. The Hungarians successfully used the scorched earth tactics and the emperor had to withdraw with his army. Finally the Hungarian army forced him to surrender at Vienna. After his defeat Conrad was obliged to cede some border territory to Hungary.
When Rudolph III, King of Burgundy died on February 2, 1032, he bequeathed his kingdom, which combined two earlier kingdoms of Burgundy, to Conrad. Despite some opposition, the Burgundian and Provencal nobles paid homage to Conrad in Zürich in 1034. This kingdom of Burgundy, which under Conrad's successors would become known as the Kingdom of Arles, corresponded to most of the southeastern quarter of modern France and included western Switzerland, the Franche-Comté and Dauphiné. It did not include the smaller Duchy of Burgundy to the north, ruled by a cadet branch of the Capetian King of France. (Piecemeal over the next centuries most of the former Kingdom of Arles was incorporated into France - but King of Arles remained one of the Holy Roman Emperor's subsidiary titles until the dissolution of the Empire in 1806.)
Conrad upheld the rights of the valvassores (knights and burghers of the cities) of Italy against Archbishop Aribert of Milan and the local nobles. The nobles as vassal lords and the bishop had conspired to rescind rights from the burghers. With skillful diplomacy and luck Conrad restored order.

Last years
In 1038, Prince Guaimar IV of Salerno requested his adjudication in a dispute over Capua with its Prince Pandulf, whom Conrad had released from imprisonment in 1024, immediately after his coronation. Hearing that Michael IV the Paphlagonian of the Byzantine Empire had received the same request, Conrad went to Southern Italy, to Salerno and Aversa.
He appointed Richer, from Germany, as abbot of Monte Cassino, the abbot Theobald being imprisoned by Pandulf. At Troia, he ordered Pandulf to restore stolen property to Monte Cassino. Pandulf sent his wife and son to ask for peace, giving 300 lb of gold and a son and daughter as hostages. The emperor accepted Pandulf's offer, but the hostage escaped and Pandulf holed up in his outlying castle of Sant'Agata de' Goti. Conrad besieged and took Capua and gave it to Guaimar with the title of Prince. He also recognised Aversa as a county of Salerno under Ranulf Drengot, the Norman adventurer. Pandulf, meanwhile, fled to Constantinople. Conrad thus left the Mezzogiorno firmly in Guaimar's hands and loyal, for once, to the Holy Roman Empire.
During the return trip to Germany an epidemic broke out among the troops. Conrad's daughter-in-law and stepson died. Conrad himself returned safely and held several important courts in Solothurn, Strasbourg and in Goslar. His son Henry was invested with the kingdom of Burgundy.
A year later in 1039 Conrad fell ill and died of gout in Utrecht. His heart and bowels are buried at the Cathedral of Saint Martin, Utrecht. His body was transferred to Speyer via Cologne, Mainz and Worms, where the funeral procession made stops. His body is buried at Speyer Cathedral, which was still under construction at this time. During a major excavation in 1900 his sarcophagus was relocated from his original resting place in front of the altar to the crypt, where it is still visible today along with those of seven of his successors.
A biography of Conrad II in chronicle form, Gesta Chuonradi II imperatoris, was written by his chaplain Wipo of Burgundy, and presented to Henry III in 1046, not long after the latter was crowned.

Conrad II, Holy Roman Emperor
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Conrad II (c. 990–June 4, 1039) was the son of a mid-level nobleman in Franconia, Count Henry of Speyer and Adelaide of Alsace, who inherited the titles of count of Speyer and of Worms as an infant when Henry died at age twenty.

He appointed Richer, from Germany, as abbot of Monte Cassino, the abbot Theobald being imprisoned by Pandulf. At Troia, he ordered Pandulf to restore stolen property to Monte Cassino. Pandulf sent his wife and son to ask for peace, giving 300 lb of gold and a son and daughter as hostages. The emperor accepted Pandulf's offer, but the hostage escaped and Pandulf holed up in his outlying castle of Sant'Agata dei Goti. Conrad besieged and took Capua and gave it to Guaimar with the title of Prince. He also recognised Aversa as a county of Salerno under Ranulf Drengot, the Norman adventurer. Pandulf, meanwhile, fled to Constantinople. Conrad thus left the Mezzogiorno firmly in Guaimar's hands and loyal, for once, to the Holy Roman Empire.
During the return trip to Germany an epidemic broke out among the troops. Conrad's daughter-in-law and stepson died. Conrad himself returned safely and held several important courts in Solothurn, Strasbourg and in Goslar. His son Henry was invested with the kingdom of Burgundy.
A year later in 1039 Conrad fell ill and died in Utrecht.
A biography of Conrad II in chronicle form, Gesta Chuonradi II imperatoris, was written by his chaplain Wipo of Burgundy, and presented to Henry III in 1046, not long after the latter was crowned.

Koenraad II de Saliër

http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koenraad_II_de_Sali%C3%ABr
Koenraad II (rond 990 – Utrecht, 4 juni 1039) was de zoon van Hendrik van Spiers en Adelheid van Elzas. In 1024 werd hij gekozen tot koning en in 1027 gekroond tot keizer van het Heilige Roomse Rijk, waarmee hij de eerste Salische Keizer werd.
Koenraad werd opgevoed door de bisschop van Worms, in bescheiden omstandigheden (voor een edelman). Hij trouwde Gizela van Zwaben, die net als Koenraad beweerde een afstammeling te zijn van Karel de Grote. Keizer Hendrik II zag dit als een aanleiding om Koenraad in de ban te doen, maar dit duurde niet lang en in 1024 was Koenraad kandidaat om Hendrik op te volgen als koning van Duitsland. Op 8 september werd hij in Mainz gekroond.
In 1027 werd hij, ondanks weerstand van enkele prinsen, in Rome door paus Johannes XIX gekroond tot Keizer van het Heilige Roomse Rijk.
In deze periode gaf hij opdracht om in Nijmegen, op de restanten van de palts van Karel de Grote, de Sint-Nicolaaskapel te bouwen.
Hij continueerde het beleid van de Ottonen op het gebied van godsdienst met een voortzetting van de Rijkskerk. Hij maakte ook nog steeds gebruik van ministerialen en zorgde voor territoriale uitbreiding. In het westen veroverde hij in 1033 Bourgondië en in het oosten zorgde de Drang nach Osten voor een verder oprukkende kerstening en kolonisatie.
In 1039 stierf Koenraad in Utrecht aan een aanval van jicht. Zijn ingewanden werden in de Dom van Utrecht bijgezet, mogelijk heeft om die reden zijn zoon een vermoedelijk kerkenkruis daaromheen gebouwd. Zijn stoffelijk overschot werd overgedragen en bijgezet in de Dom van Spiers.
Hij was gehuwd met Gizela van Zwaben (995-1043), dochter van Herman II van Zwaben, en was de vader van:
Hendrik III (1017-1056)
Beatrix
Mathildis (1027-1044), die zich in 1043 verloofde met koning Hendrik I van Frankrijk (-1060).

KONRAD of Franconia, son of HEINRICH Graf [im Wormsgau] & his wife Adelheid [Matfriede] ([990]-Utrecht 4 Jun 1039, bur Speyer cathedral). "Heinricus…Romanorum imperator augustus" renewed the privileges of Kloster Fulda by undated charter, placed in the compilation with other charters dated 1020, witnessed by "Godifridi ducis, Berinhardi ducis, Thiederici ducis, Welphonis comitis, Cunonis comitis, Kunrati comitis, Ottonis comitis, Adilbrahtis comitis, Bobonis comitis, Friderici comitis, Bezilini comitis, Ezonis comitis palatini"[337], the order of witnesses presumably giving some idea of the relative importance of these named nobles at the court of Emperor Heinrich II at the time. Herimannus names "Counradus senior, filius Heinrici et Adalheidæ" when recording his candidacy to succeed as king of Germany in 1024[338]. Thietmar names "Konrad who had illegally married his own cousin, the widow of Duke Ernst" when recording that he was wounded when Gerhard Graf von Metz (his maternal uncle) met Godefroi II Duke of Lower Lotharingia for "a judicial duel" 27 Aug 1017[339]. Wipo, in his description of the election of Konrad II King of Germany in 1024, calls him "Cuono of Worms Duke of the Franks" and "Cuono the Younger"[340]. He was elected as KONRAD II King of Germany at Chamba, Rheingau 4 Sep 1024, crowned at Mainz 8 Sep 1024. Crowned King of Italy at Milan in Mar 1026. Crowned Emperor KONRAD I at Rome 26 Mar 1027. Rudolf III King of Burgundy in 1032 bequeathed his kingdom to Emperor Konrad, who was crowned king of Burgundy at Payerne 2 Feb 1033[341]. Konrad's succession in Burgundy was challenged by his wife's first cousin Eudes II Comte de Blois, with support from Géraud Comte de Genève, but he consolidated his position by 1037 when he proclaimed a law which established the basis for the inheritance of titles and offices in the kingdom[342]. Founded Kloster Limburg 1024-1032. The necrology of Prüm records the death "II Non Iun" of "Cuonradus imperator"[343]. The Annales Spirenses record his burial at Speyer[344].
m ([31 May 1015/Jan 1017]) as her third husband, GISELA of Swabia, widow firstly of BRUNO Graf [von Braunschweig], secondly of ERNST Duke of Swabia [Babenberg], daughter of HERMANN II Duke of Swabia & his wife Gerberga of Upper Burgundy (11 Nov 990-Goslar 15 Feb 1043, bur Speyer cathedral). The Annalista Saxo names her three husbands, although the order of her first and second marriages is interchanged which appears impossible chronologically[345]. She was crowned Queen of Germany at Köln 21 Sep 1024. Crowned empress, with her husband, at Rome 26 Mar 1027. The Annalista Saxo records the death of "Gisla imperatrix mater Heinrici regis" on "XVI Kal Martii" and her burial at Speyer[346]. The necrology of St Gall records the death "XV Kal Feb" of "Gisila imperatrix"[347]. Herimannus records her death at Goslar[348]. The Annales Spirenses record the burial at Speyer of "Heinricus senior [=Heinricus IV] et aviam suam"[349], the latter assumed to be his paternal grandmother Gisela rather than his maternal grandmother. Emperor Konrad & his wife had three children:
1. HEINRICH (Oosterbecke [Ostrebeck] 28 Oct 1017-Burg Bodfeld im Harz 5 Oct 1056, bur Speyer Cathedral). "Cunradus…Romanorum imperator augustus" granted property to the church of Paderborn by charter dated 7 Apr 1027, naming for the first time "filii nostri Heinrici"[350]. He was crowned as HEINRICH III King of Germany at Aachen 14 Apr 1028 and crowned Emperor HEINRICH II at Rome 25 Dec 1046. - see below.
2. BEATRIX (-24 Sep 1036). "Chuonradus…Romanorum imperator augustus" donated property to the church of Worms with "filii nostri Heinrici Regis, filie quoque nostre Beatricis" for the souls of "parentum nostrorum defunctorum atavi nostri ducis Chuonradi, avie nostre Iudithe, patris nostri Heinrici, patrui nostri ducis Chuonradi eiusque coniugis Mathildis, sororis etiam nostre Iudithe" by charter dated 30 Jan 1034[351]. The necrology of Merseburg records the death "24 Sep" of "Beatrix filia Cuonradi imperatoris"[352]. "Chuonradus…Romanorum imperator augustus" donated property to Kloster Quedlinburg "pro remedio animæ filiæ nostræ Beatricis" by charter dated 25 Oct 1036[353].
3. MATHILDE ([Oosterbecke] 1027[354]-Worms 1034 [after 30 Jan], bur Worms Cathedral). Wipo names "filia imperatoris Chuonradi et Giselæ, Mahthilda" when recording her death and burial at Worms in 1034, specifying that she was betrothed to "Heinrico regi Francorum"[355]. Her marriage was arranged to confirm a peace compact agreed between Henri I King of France and Emperor Konrad at Deville in May 1033[356]. Her absence from the list of deceased relatives in the donation of "Chuonradus…Romanorum imperator augustus" to the church of Worms by charter dated 30 Jan 1034 suggests that Mathilde died after that date, while her absence from the list of the children of Emperor Konrad named in the same charter is explainable on the basis of her youth[357]. Betrothed (May 1033) to HENRI I King of France, son of ROBERT II " le Pieux" King of France & his third wife Constance d'Arles [Provence] ([end 1009/May 1010]-Palais de Vitry-aux-Loges, forêt d’Orléans, Loiret 4 Aug 1060, bur église de l'Abbaye royale de Saint-Denis).
