Dietrich of Altena-Isenberg (circa 1196 – 18 July 1226), known as Dietrich III Bishop of Münster (1218–1226).[1] He was closely involved in the preparations for the construction of St. Paul's Cathedral in Münster. On 22 July 1225, he laid the foundation stone for the Dom Church, "Neubau iuxta formam templi Marienfeldensis aedificanda".[2]
Early life
Dietrich was the son of Count

His role was abruptly cut short and continued by the chapter later that year, when his brother Frederick of Isenberg was involved in the death of their uncle Engelbert II of Berg, Archbishop of Cologne, on 27 November 1226, in Gevelsberg.[4]
