Garibald I (ca. 530 - ongeveer 593) was de eerst bekende hertog van Beieren.
Garibald was vermoedelijk verwant aan de Merovingische koningen. Hij dankte zijn positie aan Frankische steun. Hij trouwt met Waldrada, een Longobardische prinses die eerder met de Frankische koningen Theudowald en Chlotarius I getrouwd was geweest. Chlotarius had haar echter onder druk van de geestelijkheid moeten verstoten. Het huwelijk met Waldrada zorgde bovendien voor uitstekende verhoudingen met de Longobarden.
In 568 trekken de Longobarden naar Italië waardoor ze directe buren van Garibald worden. Naarmate de spanningen tussen de Franken en de Longobarden toenemen, komt Garibald meer in het nauw. Als Garibald in 588 zijn dochter Theudalinda aan de Longobardische koning Authari wil uithuwen, wordt dit niet door de Franken geaccepteerd. Garibald zet zijn zin door maar moet daarna onder Frankische druk zijn functie overdragen aan zijn (vermoedelijke zoon) Tassilo.
Garibald I (also Garivald) (born 540) was Duke (or King) of Bavaria from 555 until 591.[1] He stands at the head of the Agilolfings and the Bavarian Dynasty that ruled the Kingdom of the Lombards.
After the death of the Merovingian king Theudebald of Austrasia, his successor Chlothar I had "begun to have intercourse with"[2] his widow Waldrada (531 572), daughter of the Lombard king Wacho. Chlothar's bishops objected, so he gave Waldrada to Garibald to marry in 556. Not only did this grant Garibald prestige, but it created lasting political ties between the Bavarii and the Lombards of Pannonia and Bohemia. This would have consequences after the Lombards moved into Italy in 568.
Some time before 585, the Merovingian court attempted to bind Duke Garibald more closely to their interests by arranging a marriage between his daughter Theodelinda and King Childebert II of Austrasia. At the same time the Merovingians were attempting to normalise relations with Authari, the Lombard king, by arranging a marriage between Childebert's sister and Authari. Both these proposals fell through. The offended Authari was engaged to Theodelinda in 588. Fearing an anti-Frankish axis, the Franks sent an army into Bavaria. Garibald's children Gundoald and Theodelinda fled to Italy. Authari married Theodelinda in May 589 and named his brother-in-law, Gundoald, Duke of Asti. In 590, the Franks invaded Lombardy with help from Byzantium, but were defeated.
In 591, Childebert normalised relations with the Lombards and Bavarii. After King Authari died in 590, the Lombard dukes asked Theodelinda to marry again. She chose Authari's cousin Agilulf as her husband, and he was accepted as the next king. They then negotiated a peace with Childebert which lasted for decades. According to Paulus Diaconus, peace with Bavaria was restored when Childebert named Tassilo rex (king). It is unknown whether Garibald was deposed or died. Nor is it clear what Tassilo's relationship to Garibald was; though if not his son, he was certainly a close relation.
The Agilolfings were a family of either Frankish or Bavarian nobility that ruled the Duchy of Bavaria on behalf of their Merovingian suzerains from about 550 until 788. Named after Agilulf, a semi-legendary prince of the Germanic Suebi tribe and descendant of King Hermeric of Galicia, the first duke of their line mentioned in any documents, and probably the first, was Gariwald (Garibald I). A cadet branch of the Agilolfings also ruled the Lombard Italy intermittently from 616 to 712.
The Lex Baiuvariorum issued about 743 denoted them as the leading dynasty, enthroned by the Merovingian kings of the Franks. Their Bavarian residence was at Regensburg. As they had their fate intertwined with the Merovingian dynasty, they opposed the rise of the Carolingian majordomos, who finally deprived the Agilolfings of their power.
