Henry V, Duke of Legnica
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Henry V the Fat (German: Heinrich V der Dicke, Polish: Henryk V Brzuchaty; b. ca. 1248 - d. 22 February 1296) was a Duke of Jawor (Jauer) from 1273, of Legnica (Liegnitz) from 1278 and also Duke of Wroclaw (Breslau) from 1290.
He was the eldest son of Bolesław II the Bald, Duke of Legnica by his first wife Hedwig, daughter of Henry I, Count of Anhalt.
Life
[edit]Early Years. Duke of Jauer, Battle of Stolec
Little is known about the earliest years of Henry's life. As a youth, he was present at the court of King Ottokar II of Bohemia in Prague, where he became a knight.[1]
In 1273, Henry's father give to him the town of Jawor (Jauer) as an independent Duchy. Four years later Henry's father Boles≈Çaw II the Bald, acting on behalf of his ally, king Rudolph of Habsburg, kidnapped his own nephew Henry IV, the ruler of Duchy of Wroc≈Çaw. This act aroused the anger of the nobility in Lesser Poland and the neighbors of Henry IV, who then organized an expedition to free him and punish Boles≈Çaw. At the head of the Greater Poland-G≈Çogów-Wroclaw coalition were the Dukes Przemysâ‰ˆÇ II of Greater Poland and Henry III of G≈Çogów. The armies fought at ZƒÖbkowice ≈ölƒÖskie near Stolec. This was one of the most bloody battles of the Polish Middle Ages. In the course of battle, Boles≈Çaw, suspecting that the battle is to be lost, fled the field. However, at this point the young Henry led a charge and obtained a great victory, taking both Dukes Przemysâ‰ˆÇ II and Henry III as prisoners. Thanks to the action of the young Duke of Jauer, his father and family were saved from disastrous defeat.
[edit]Death of Bolesław II the Bald. Henry V, Duke of Legnica
Boles≈Çaw II died on 26 December 1278 and Henry was now able to succeeded him as a Duke in Legnica. Shortly afterwards, Henry in turn gave lands to his younger brothers: Bolko I and Bernard received Jawor and Lwówek as co-rulers, but Henry retaining the town of ≈öroda ≈ölƒÖska, a town obtained in 1277 in exchange of Henry IV's freedom.
Henry continued the hostile relations with the other Piast Silesian Dukes characteristic of his father's rule. In 1281 he committed the mistake of accepting the invitation of Henry IV Probus to a meeting in SƒÖdowel. Henry IV imprisoned the Duke of Legnica together with his former allies Henry III of G≈Çogów and Przemysâ‰ˆÇ II of Greater Poland, in order to obtain political concessions from them. Henry regained his freedom only in return for the recognition of Henry IV as Duke of Wroc≈Çaw. However, Henry IV couldn't maintain his sovereignty for too long, because immediately the Duke of Legnica entered in close contacts with the King Wenceslaus II of Bohemia, who asserted his own claim to that land.
[edit]Henry V, Duke of Wroclaw. War with Henry III of G≈Çogów
On 23 June 1290 Henry IV Probus died suddenly, supposedly poisoned. In his testament, the late Duke named Henry III of G≈Çogów as his heir. That decision, however, was opposed by Wroc≈Çaw nobility and townspeople, who feared that the Duke of G≈Çogów would be a harsh ruler. The power of the city was sufficient enough to force Henry III to flee. Thereafter, the citizens invited Henry V to take the place of Henry III.
Henry III, however, refused to step aside and began to take by force his inheritance, and war followed with saw territories change hands back and forth.
Henry couldn't prevent the next move of the Duke of G≈Çogów. On 11 November 1293 Henry was betrayed by Lutka Zdzieszyca, son of Wroc≈Çaw noble whom Henry had earlier sentenced to death. Lutka captured him and gave to Duke Henry III, who put him in prison for almost six months. Henry V only obtained his freedom after surrendering the towns of Namys≈Çów, Bierutów, Ole≈õnica, Kluczbork, Byczyna, Wo≈Çczyn, Olesno, Chojnów and Boles≈Çawiec with their respectives fortresses to Henry III, paying of a ransom of 30,000 pieces and promising to assist the Duke of G≈Çogów for the next five years in all his wars.
During his imprisonment in G≈Çogów, Henry's brother Bolko I was named regent of his states. In 1291, Henry V already give him the towns of ≈öwidnica (Schweidnitz), Ziƒôbice, ZƒÖbkowice ≈ölƒÖskie and Strzelin as a price for his help against Henry III.
[edit]Death and Legacy
Because of the conditions of his confinement (he was locked in an iron cage), Henry was ill after his release and indeed until his death. He never recovered his health, and seems to have known that he was not going to live much longer. Fearing for the future of his Duchy, in 1294 he decided to put himself under the protection of the Holy See.
Henry died on 22 February 1296 and was buried in the Clare monastery of Wroclaw. At this time, all his sons were minors, and because of this, they were put under the tutelage of his brother Bolko.
[edit]Marriage and Issue
Around 1273, Henry married with Elisabeth (b. ca. 1263 - d. 28 September 1304), daughter of Boleslaw the Pious, Duke of Greater Poland. They had eight children:
Hedwig (b. ca. 1277 - d. aft. 3 February 1347), married by 1289/95 to Prince Otto of Brandenburg-Salzwedel, second son of Margrave Otto V. After her husband died, she became a nun in St. Klara, Wroclaw.
Euphemia (b. ca. 1278 - d. June 1347), married in 1300 to Otto II of Görz, Duke of Carinthia. Through this union, Henry was a direct ancestor of the Kings of Sicily, Aragon and Castile.
Anna (b. 1284 - d. 2/3 October 1343), Abbess of St. Klara, Wroclaw.
Elisabeth (b. ca. 1290 - d. Nov 1357/58), Abbess of St. Klara, Wroclaw.
Bolesław III the Generous (b. 23 September 1291 - d. 21 April 1352).
Helena (b. ca. 1293 - d. aft. 1300), nun in St. Klara, Gniezno.
Henry VI the Good (b. 18 March 1294 - d. 24 November 1335).
Władysław (b. posthumously, 6 June 1296 - d. 13 January aft. 1352).
