Burggraf von Rietenburg
The Burggraf von Rietenburg[1] (died after 1185) was a Middle High German lyric poet in the Minnesang tradition. He was probably the younger brother of the Burggraf von Regensburg. All seven of his surviving stanzas are concerned with courtly love.[2]
The poet belonged to the family of the counts of Stevening and Riedenburg, who held the burgraviate of Regensburg from 970 until 1185.[3] He is probably to be identified with either Heinrich IV (burgrave from 1176, died after 1184/85) or Otto III (died after 1185).[4]
The Burggraf von Rietenburg and his brother are usually grouped with
troubadours.[3]
