HERMAN II, DUKE OF SWABIA

'Herman II' (died 4 May 1003) was the Conradine duke of Swabia from 997 to his death, as the son of and successor Conrad I.
Herman opposed the election of Henry III, Duke of Bavaria, as king of Germany because he himself had been a contender. Henry separated Alsace from Swabia and took control of the duchy, a situation which continued through the reign of Herman's son and successor, Herman III.
He married Gerberga of Burgundy, and they had Gisela of Swabia, who was the wife of Conrad II, Holy Roman Emperor.
