Notizen bei Otto von BRANDENBURG I

Otto I (c. 1128 - July 8, 1184) was the second Margrave of Brandenburg, from 1170 until his death.

Otto I was born into the House of Ascania as the eldest son of Albert I ("Albert the Bear"), who founded the Margraviate of Brandenburg in 1157, and his wife Sophie of Winzenburg. He had three sisters and six brothers, the best known of whom were Prince-Archbishop Siegfried of Bremen, and Count Bernhard of Anhalt, later Duke of Saxony.

Around 1148, Otto married Judith of the Piast dynasty, sister of the Dukes of Poland Boleslaw IV and Mieszko III. Arrangements for the marriage were agreed upon during the Wendic Crusade (one of the Northern Crusades) in a meeting of January 6, 1148, in which Archbishop Friedrich of Wettin participated besides Otto and the two Polish dukes. After Judith's death in 1175, Otto married Ada of Holland in 1176, daughter of Floris III, Count of Holland.

Otto had two sons from the first marriage, Otto and Heinrich, and a third son from the second marriage, Albert:

Otto II became his successor as Margrave of Brandenburg at Otto I's death in 1184
Heinrich became Count of Gardelegen
Albert II became Margrave of Brandenburg after the death of his brother Otto II in 1205
Otto was buried in the Lehnin Abbey, which he had helped build.

Otto governed from 1144 alongside his father Albert. He did not officially take the title Margrave of Brandenburg until his father's death in 1170, but as early as 1144 he is mentioned by that title along with Albert in a royal document, although Albert himself did not claim it until 1157. The father and son together shaped the House of Ascania's policy over several decades, together participating in meetings and decisions, and are both frequently mentioned in documents of the period. The pair were accompanied and supported in many cases by Otto's brothers, in particular the second-eldest, Hermann. Otto outlived his father, who lived to the then very old age of 70, by only 14 years.
