Luitpold of Znojmo (Czech: Litold znojemský, German: Luitpold von Znaim, Latin: Lutoldus Znoyemsis; died 15. March[notes 1] 1112) was the Duke of Moravia for twenty years - between 1092 and 1112. He was the first son and successor of Conrad I, of Brno (died 1092) and Wirpirk of Tengling. He did not succeed as half ruler of Moravia (diarch), for all half of Moravia (the west one) as his father Conrad I, but Brno was divided into two parts: Brno and Znojmo and Luitpold was co-ruler in this part with his brother Ulrich I. Duke of Brno.[1][2] Both brothers together established a benedictine cloister and its St. Procopius Basilica in Třebíč and prepared as mausoleum for Brno-Znojmo branch House of Přemyslid.

He had long ruled over Moravia (as diarch in Brno) for 20 years, once interrupted by illegitimate regency: (1099-1100 by Bretislaus II)

By his marriage to an princess Ida of Austria (Ida of Babenberg) daughter of Leopold II, Markgraf of Austria and his wife Ida of Ratelberg, he had one son, the other children (if any), unknown.

  • Conrad, Duke of Moravia, part of Znojmo from 1125 to 1123 and from 1128 to his death on 1170

He was succeeded legitimately as prince of Znojmo by his son Conrad of Znojmo.

Domestic policy

Burial place in Benedictine Abbey, Třebíč

Luitpold and Ulrich initially ruled in the Brno part (the western one) of the duchy of Moravia, until 1099 when they were evicted illegitimately by Bretislaus II. Later they enforced a return of the Brno part of the Moravian duchy - with the help of the Bavarian armed troops as well as indirect support by Emperor Henry IV (whom he visited in early February 1101 in Frankfurt) forced return of Brno, the Moravian duchy back, according to the principles of agnatic seniority. After they returned to the duchy of Brno, the brothers divided it into two subparts named Brno (principality) and Znojmo (principality), where they continued to reign in certain local territorial union. In 1104 they together founded a Benedictine abbey in Třebíč whose convent church of St. Procopius was intended as their own dynastic mausoleum where they were both buried.

Emperor Henry IV gave to his brother Ulrich insignia of rank and banner (vexillum) for their reign in the duchy.

All the Moravian lines of Přemysl dynasty as a whole were systematically associated with dynastic marriages with princesses of major royal and ducal dynasties, especially Árpád dynasty, Rurik dynasty, Piast dynasty, Nemanjić dynasty-senior line Vukanović,[notes 2] Babenberg dynasty and houses of bavarian monarchs, as it was the other way around (vice versa). Members of the Moravian dynasty were fully predisposed to take over the central throne (for both countries - Bohemia and Moravia) in Prague, under the principles of agnatic seniority.
