  Encyclopedia :: encyclopedia : Clovis I   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
Clovis I died in 511 and is interred Saint Denis Basilica, Paris, France, whereas his father had been buried with the older Merovingian kings at Tournai.
Upon his death, his realm was divided among his four sons, (Theuderic, Chlodomer, Childebert, and Clotaire).
This created the new political units of the Kingdoms of Reims, Orléans, Paris and Soissons and inaugurated a period of disunity which was to last with brief interruptions until the end (751) of his Merovingian dynasty.

 Turingii Thuringii Tribe Portal
Her father Berthar was murdered by Berthar's brother, Hermanafrid, who in 531 was defeated by Frankish King Theuderic of Austrasia and King Lothar I (=Chlotar I) of Neustria.
The Thuringians, or at least a part of them, were destroyed by the victory of the King of the Ripuarian Franks, Theuderic ("Austrasia"), who in 531 at Zuelpich defeated and killed the Thuringian King Hermanafrid.
One writer states that Hermanfrid was killed at the Battle of Bergscheidungen on the Unstrut River in 531 AD (source?).--Schutz states that Hermanafrid was killed later in 534 AD, after concluding a treaty with the Franks.

 ORB -- Radegund of Poitiers
We know that her father was killed by his brother Hermanfrid and that as a young girl Radegund and her unnamed brother were taken "as prizes of war" and lived with their paternal aunt and uncle, Hermanfrid and Amalberga.
Sometime after this, after Hermanfrid apparently refused to keep the bargain he made in alliance with Theuderic, Theudebert, and Lothar, the Merovingian heirs of Clovis, in helping dispose of his brother.
The original plan was for the Merovingians to ally themselves with Hermanfred so that he could conquer the lands of his brother Berthar.
