He was the son of Frederick of Luxembourg, count of Moselgau, and perhaps of Ermentrude of Gleiberg. At first count of Salm and of Longwy, on his brother Henry II's death he inherited the county of Luxembourg, as well as providing the income for the abbeys of Saint-Maximin in Trier and Saint-Willibrord in Echternach.
