| | Bambooweb: Hermanafrid |
 | | His siblings were Baderich, Radegundis (the older), married to the Lombard king Wacho, and Bertachar.Hermanfrid married Amalaberga, niece of Theodoric the Great between 507 and 511 AD.It is unclear when Hermanafrid became king, but he is called king ('rex thoringorum') in a letter by Theoderich dated to 507. |
 | | Baderich was overcome by the Franks and beheaded, but Hermanafrid refused to fulfil undisclosed unfulfilled obligations to Theuderich, which led to enmity between the two kings.In 531 Theuderich and his brother Chlothar I attacked the Thuringians. |
 | | Gregory mentions (very tongue in cheek) that 'certain people' had ventured to suggest that maybe Theuderic might have something to do with it.Radegundis was forced to marry King Lothar I. Hermanafrid's wife Amalaberga fled to the Ostrogoths with her children Amalafrid and Rodelindis. |
