Information about Theudebert Ii

Enlarge picture
The Frankish realm as it was after the Treaty of Andelot in 587. The Austrasian kingdom of Childebert (green) was inherited by Theudebert II.
Theudebert II (French: Thibert or Th̩odebert; 586 Р612), King of Austrasia (595 Р612), was the son and heir of Childebert II. He received the kingdom of Austrasia plus the cities (civitates) of Poitiers, Tours, Vellay, Bordeaux, and Ch̢teaudun, as well as the the Champagne, the Auvergne, and Transjurane Alemannia, on the death of his father in 595, but was dominated by his grandmother Brunhilda, whom he succeeded in driving away in 599.

In 599, he and his brother Theuderic II were at war. Theuderic defeated him at Sens, but their cousin Clotaire II's restless warmaking prompted them to ally against him. They resumed the fight against Clotaire's kingdom of Neustria and defeated him at Dormelles (near Montereau), thereby laying his hands on a great portion of his land (600–604). At this point, however, the two brothers took up arms against each other; Theuderic defeated him at Étampes and he refused to aid his brother when Theuderic's kingdom was invaded by Clotaire in 605. In 610, he extorted Alsace from his brother and Theuderic took up arms against him, yet again. Theudebert II was defeated handily at Toul and at Tolbiac in 612. He was locked up in a monastery at the order of his grandmother Brunhilda, and assassinated with his son Mérovée.

His daughter, Emma, married King Eadbald of Kent and had a son, Eorcenberht, who was also a king of Kent.
