Henry II, Duke of Limburg

Henry II (c. 1111 – August 1167) was the duke of Limburg from 1139 and count of Arlon from 1147 to his death.

[1] He succeeded his father in Limburg with the title of duke, but Conrad III refused to grant him Lower Lorraine.

Henry refused at first to accept the loss of Lorraine and in 1140 attacked the new duke, Godfrey VII.

Godfrey died in 1142, but Henry was occupied with a war against the lord of Fauquemont and did not assert any claim to the duchy of Lower Lorraine.

Conrad confirmed this, for he had promised Henry a fief to compensate for the loss of Lorraine, and the duke and the king were reconciled.
