Niclas, Graf von Abensberg

Niclas, Graf von Abensberg (1441 – 28 February 1485) was a knight and nobleman under the reign of Louis IX, Duke of Bavaria.

Originating from an old family of considerable means ruling at Abensberg (Bavaria), Niclas came as a young man to the Court of Louis IX in Landshut.

Once more, Niclas led the troops of Albrecht IV, conquering Päl, Weilheim and Landsberg without meeting resistance.

However, as Niclas and the other noblemen returned home, they were ambushed by Duke Christof.

Niclas was dismounted from his saddle and surrendered, but was stabbed by a varlet and died.
