Conrad I, Duke of Merania
- Conrad I, Duke of Merania
-
Conrad I (died 18 February 1159) was the Duke of Merania, (or Dalmatia), now in present day Italy, from 1153 until his death. Thitherto he had been the advocate of St Andreas at Freising since 1150 and Count of Dachau (as Conrad II) from 1152.
Conrad was the elder of two sons of Conrad I of Dachau. Conrad inherited Dachau from his father and lands in Dalmatia which had formerly been the March of Carniola from his mother, Willibirg, who had inherited them from Adelaide, daughter of Poppo II of Carniola. In 1156, Conrad gave Dachau, of which in contemporary documents he appears as a dux, to his younger brother Arnold. Conrad died in battle at Bergamo and was buried in Scheyern.
He had married Adelaide, daughter of Henry, Duke of Lower Lorraine, before 1140. They had no children and Conrad remarried after her death (before 1146). His second wife, Matilda of Falkenstein, gave him one son, Conrad II, who inherited Merania and, in 1172, Dachau.
