EspañolCONRAD II, DUKE OF TRANSJURANE BURGUNDY
(Redirected from Conrad II of Auxerre)
'Conrad II the Younger' was the Count of Auxerre from 864 until his death. He was a son of Conrad I of Auxerre, and Adelaide; an older brother of Hugh the Abbot; and a member of the Bavarian branch of the Welfs.
In 858, at the coaxing of Charles the Bald, his cousin, he and his brother betrayed Louis the German when he sent them on an espionage mission and went over to Charles, who rewarded them handsomely because he had lost his Bavarian ''honores''. He acted as Duke of Transjurane (Upper) Burgundy from then until about 864.
He married Judith, daughter of Eberhard of Friuli, and later Waldrada of Worms, by whom he left a son, Rudolf, who later became King of Transjurane Burgundy.
