Hermann IV VON SCHWABEN, Duke of Swabia
- Born: Abt 1015, Schwaben, Bayern
- Married: 1035, Susa, Torino, Italy
- Died: 28 Jul 1038
Research Notes:
The Chronicle of Otto of Freising names "geminosque ex ea [Ernusto duci Suevorum] filios Ernustum et Herimannum", although it is not certain that this should be taken as meaning that the two brothers were twins, reference to which has not yet been identified in other sources. Herimannus names "frater eius [=Ernust dux] iunior Herimannus" when recording his succession as Duke of Swabia in 1030 when his brother was deprived of the title.
He succeeded his brother in 1030 as HERMANN IV Duke of Swabia. He succeeded his father-in-law as Marchese di Susa in 1036.
Wipo records the death "V Kal Aug" of "filius imperatricis Herimannus dux Alemannorum". The necrology of Fulda records the death in 1038 of "Herimannnus dux". The necrology of St Gall records the death "V Kal Aug" of "Heremanni ducis Alamannnorum". 1
