Hvem giftet seg med Gebhard Truchsess von Waldburg?

Gebhard I von Waldburg (født 10. november 1547 i Heiligenberg, død 21. eller 31. mai 1601 i Strasbourg) var kurfyrste og erkebiskop av Köln fra 1577 til 1583. Han konverterte til protestantismen, giftet seg og ønsket å sekularisere erkebispedømmet. Dette møtte sterk motstand hos det katolske Kölns Domkapittel og førte til Kölnkrigen, som Gebhard til slutt tapte.

Agnes von Mansfeld-Eisleben (1551–1637) was Countess of Mansfeld and the daughter of Johann (Hans) Georg I, of Mansfeld Eisleben. She converted Gebhard, Seneschal of Waldburg, the Prince-Elector of Electorate of Cologne and archbishop of the Diocese of Cologne to the Protestant faith, leading to the Cologne War (1583–1588).

After a multi-year odyssey in which she and her husband sought refuge in several parts of northern Germany, Gebhard relinquished his claim on the Electorate. They settled in Strassbourg, where he had retained a position in the Cathedral chapter. After his death in 1601, she came under the protection of the Duke of Wūrttemberg, who had himself been chased from his duchy. She died in 1637.
