The Abbey That Cast Out Its Protector
This episode explores the reign of a medieval count who spent 36 years building his county, only to die excommunicated by an institution he defended. What led to this unexplained excommunication?
Person: Dirk VI of Holland
Period: 12th century
Event: Excommunication
Location: Holland
Mother: Petronilla of Holland
- In 1156, a count resolved a 233-year dispute in a single negotiated act.
- His mother, Petronilla, became regent when he was seven, doubting his ability to rule.
- Petronilla backed her half-brother Lothair of Süpplingenburg, who later became King of Germany and returned lost territories to Holland.
- In 1129, King Lothair recognized Dirk's younger brother, Floris, as Count of Holland, leading to two counts for two years.
- Floris the Black was ambushed and killed in 1132, leaving Dirk to rule alone at approximately eighteen years old.
