• (Geschiedenis) .Source 1

  Magnus van Saksen (ca. 1045 - Ertheneburg, 23 augustus 1106) was de oudste zoon van hertog Ordulf van Saksen, van het Huis Billung, en Wulfhilde van Noorwegen. Hij was hertog van Saksen.
  
  Magnus was een belangrijke tegenstander van aartsbisschop Adelbert van Bremen. Adelbert was raadsman van de minderjarige koning Hendrik IV en daardoor een van de machtigste hovelingen. In 1066 wist Magnus te bereiken dat Adelbert moest terugtreden.
  
  Magnus steunde in 1071 het verzet van Otto I van Northeim tegen diens vermoedelijk oneerlijke proces. Otto en Magnus werden daarop gevangengezet in de Harzburg. Otto werd in 1072 vrijgelaten maar Magnus bleef gevangen omdat hij weigerde zijn aanspraken op de hertogstitel van zijn vader op te geven. In 1073 werd de Harzburg door een bende opstandige boeren veroverd en werd Magnus vrijgelaten. Hendrik sloot in 1074 vrede met de opstandige Saksen en erkende Magnus als hertog. Magnus steunde aanvankelijk tegenkoning Rudolf van Rheinfelden en redde zijn leven tijdens de slag bij Mellrichstadt. Korte tijd later verzoende Magnus zich echter met Hendrik. Magnus is begraven in de Sankt Michaelisdom van Lüneburg (stad).

  Magnus (c.?1045 – 23 August 1106) was the duke of Saxony from 1072 to 1106. Eldest son and successor of Ordulf and Wulfhild of Norway, he was the last member of the House of Billung.

  Rebellion
  
  In 1070, before he was duke, he joined Otto of Nordheim, duke of Bavaria, in rebellion against the Salian Emperor Henry IV. Otto was accused of being privy to a plot to murder the king, and it was decided he should submit to the ordeal of battle with his accuser. The duke asked for safe-conduct to and from the place of meeting. When this was refused he declined to appear, and was consequently deprived of Bavaria, while his Saxon estates were plundered. The rebellion was put down in 1071, and Magnus was captured. Magnus was imprisoned in the castle of Harzburg, the imposing imperial fortress which so inflamed the Saxon freemen. He was not released upon his accession to the Saxon duchy until seventy Swabians captured in Lüneburg were released.
  First Battle of Langensalza
  
  In 1073, Harzburg was destroyed and the anger of Henry aroused. He renewed the conflict with Saxony once more. At the First Battle of Langensalza in 1075, Magnus was captured again. After being released again, he joined Rudolf von Rheinfeld, duke of Swabia and antiking, and was present at the Battle of Mellrichstadt (7 August 1078), where he saved Rudolf's life. However, he and the Saxons never fully supported the Swabian Rudolf and he reconciled with Henry, even fighting the Slavs with the royal forces.
  Legacy
  
  Magnus was an embittered enemy of the archbishop of Bremen, Adalbert, whose see he afflicted with repeated plundering raids. In 1106, the same year as Henry IV, he died. His duchy was given to Lothair of Supplinburg and his lands were split between his daughters by Sophia (married 1071), the daughter of Béla I of Hungary, going thus to the house of Welf, via Wulfhilde (1075–1126), who married Duke Henry IX of Bavaria and to the house of Ascania via Eilika (1080 – 16 January 1142), who married Count Otto of Ballenstedt.

  The house of Billung became extinct when Duke Magnus died in 1106 without sons; the family's property was divided between his two daughters. His daughter Wulfhilde married Henry IX, Duke of Bavaria, a member of the House of Welf; his daughter Eilika married Otto, Count of Ballenstedt, a member of the House of Ascania. As a consequence, for the following decades control of Saxony was contested between the Welfs and Ascanians.
