Gebhard, Duke of Lorraine

Gebhard, Duke of Lorraine

Gebhard of Lahngau (c.888 – 22 June 910), of the Conradine dynasty, son of Odo (d.879), count of Lahngau, and Judith, was himself count of Wetterau (909-910) and Rheingau (897-906) and then duke of Lotharingia (Lorraine).

In 903, Louis the Child, king of Germany, gave him the government of Lotharingia with the title of duke ("Kebehart dux regni quod a multis Hlotharii dicitur"). Gebhard died in battle against the Magyars, somewhere by Augsburg.

With his wife Ida, he had two children:
*Herman (d.949), duke of Swabia
*Odo (d.949), count of Wetterau (from 914), Lahngau (from 918), and Rheingau (from 917), married Cunigunda, daughter of Herbert I of Vermandois
