Rudolf von Rheinfelden, Herzog von Schwaben ⁴⁸⁸

  Notater:

Rudolf of Rheinfelden (c.1025 - 15 October 1080), a German aristocrat, was the Duke of Swabia (1057-1079), a brother-in-law of the Emperor Henry IV and the king-elect of a faction of the nobility in opposition to Henry from 1077. His election as King of Germany marked the outbreak of the Great Saxon Revolt, the first phase of open conflict in the contest between Empire and Papacy over the issue of episcopal investiture. Rudolf died as a result of battlefield injuries after his forces defeated Henry's at the Battle of Elster.

Rudolf blev gift med Mathilde von Schwaben, datter af Heinrich III Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire og Agnès de Poitou, i 1059. (Mathilde von Schwaben blev født i Okt. 1048 og døde den 12 Maj 1060 i Pöhlde, , Niedersachsen, Germany.)

Rudolf blev derefter gift med Adelheid de Savoie, datter af Otto I de Savoie Comte og Adelaide Markgräfin de Susa, i 1066. (Adelheid de Savoie blev født i 1050-1052 og døde i 1079.)
