George II was a member of the Münsterberg branch of the Bohemina noble Poděbrady family.

George was married with Elizabeth Kostka of Postupitz (Czech: Eliška Kostková z Postupic).

In a joint deed dated 25 June 1535, they awarded the city of Srebrna Góra, which belonged to Münsterberg (Ziębice, Minstrberk), the status of free mining town.

In 1542, Henry and his brothers pledged the heavily indebted Duchy of Münsterberg to their uncle Duke Frederick II of Legnica.

In 1554, a Renaissance epitaph, created by the court sculptor Johann Oslew from Würzburg (now Germany), was erected on his grave.
