Notes |
- King of Metz 511-534 - Son of Clovis I, King of the Franks, he inheritedMetz in 511 at his death. His son, Theudebert, was already of age when heascended to the throne. Early in his reign he sent his son to battle KingChlochilaich, a Dane who had invaded Metz. Theuderic then aided theThuringian King Hermanfrid against his only living brother Baderic.Baderic was defeated, but the land promised Theuderic was not given. Thefour sons of Clovis then all fought Sigismund and Godomar, father and sonKings of the Burgundians. Sigismund was taken prisoner, and Theudericmarried his daughter. Godomar was defeated, but Chlodomer, King ofOrleans, was also killed in the battle.
Theuderic then, with his brother Chlotar I and son Theudebert, attackedThuringia to get his revenge with Hermanfrid. Thuringia was conquered,and Chlotar got Radegund, daughter of King Berthar (Harmanfrid's latebrother). After making a treaty with his brother Childebert I, King ofParis, Theuderic died in 534. Upon his death the throne of Metz was upfor grabs between Chlotar, Childebert, and Theudebert.
