Frederick of Luxembourg [SEP] mother
Frederick of Luxembourg
Frederick of Luxembourg (965 – 6 October 1019), Count of Moselgau, was a son of Siegfried of Luxembourg and Hedwig of Nordgau.
By a wife whose name is unknown (certain historians give her as Ermentrude, Countess of Gleiberg), he had:
- Henry VII (d. 1047), Count of Luxembourg and Duke of Bavaria
- Frederick, Duke of Lower Lorraine (1003–1065), Duke of Lower Lorraine
- Giselbert of Luxembourg (1007–1059), Count of Longwy,
In 1447, Frederick III proposed to marry Elisabeth to Charles, son of Philip the Good, Duke of Burgundy. Philip had purchased Luxembourg from Elisabeth of Bohemia. Frederick III offered 70,000 ducats, as dowry of Elisabeth, in exchange for Luxembourg, but Philip demanded 120,000 ducats and the negotiations fell through. For unknown reasons, Elisabeth's scheduled wedding to Frederick of Saxony, negotiated by her mother Queen Elisabeth, did not take place despite a wedding treaty signed in July 1450.
