  === Life Sketch ===
  Adela von Vohburg (* vor 1127; † nach 1187 in Kloster Weißenau) aus dem Hause der Diepoldinger-Rapotonen war Erbin des Egerlandes und als erste Gemahlin des späteren Kaisers Friedrich I. Barbarossa, deutsche Königin sowie Herzogin von Schwaben.
  
  Adela von Vohburg war eine Tochter des Markgrafen Diepold III. von Vohburg und dessen im Jahre 1127 verstorbenen erster Gemahlin Adelajda von Polen.
  
  Das von ihrem Vater erworbene Egerland wurde nach dessen Tod 1146 durch die Krone wieder eingezogen. König Konrad III. verheiratete um 1147 in Eger die Erbin Adela mit seinem Neffen, Herzog Friedrich III. von Schwaben, dem späteren Kaiser Friedrich I. Barbarossa. Dieser konnte mit der Mitgift Adelas seine Machtbasis als Herzog von Schwaben bis in den ostfränkischen Raum hinein entscheidend ausweiten.
  
  Die Ehe verlief unglücklich. Friedrich trat mit Adela so gut wie nie öffentlich auf, sie war auch bei seiner Krönung zum deutschen König 1152 nicht anwesend. Im März 1153 wurde die Ehe nach sieben Jahren ohne Schwierigkeiten durch Bischof Hermann von Konstanz geschieden. Offizieller Grund der Scheidung war der Grad der Verwandtschaft zwischen Friedrich und Adela (Adelas Ururgroßmutter war eine Schwester von Friedrichs Urgroßvater). Vermutlich ist aber eine angenommene Unfruchtbarkeit Adelas der wahre Grund oder auch ein Ehebruch der Königin. Sie heiratete nämlich erneut bereits zur Jahreswende 1153/1154 und dazu noch weit unter ihrem Stand Dietho von Ravensburg (* um 1130, † nach 1187). Da gemeinhin die geschiedene Gemahlin eines Königs einem Kloster beitrat, Adela jedoch so kurz nach der Scheidung sich ohne Einspruch des Herrschers weit unter ihrem Stand wieder verheiratete, spricht vieles für einen Ehebruch Adelas.
  Sowohl Friedrich als auch Adela hatten in ihrer jeweils zweiten Ehe Kinder, womit die angenommene Unfruchtbarkeit Adelas widerlegt wurde.

  Adelaide of Vohburg (German: Adela or Adelheid; c. 1125 – 25 May after 1187) was Duchess of Swabia from 1147 and German queen from 1152 until 1153, as the first wife of the Hohenstaufen king Frederick Barbarossa, the later Holy Roman Emperor.

  Adelaide was a daughter of the Bavarian margrave Diepold III of Vohburg (c. 1079 – 1146), probably from his first marriage with Adelaide (Adelajda; c. 1091 – 1127), a daughter of the Polish duke Władysław I Herman and Judith of Swabia.[1] Since the days of Emperor Henry IV, her father's ancestors ruled over the Egerland territory in the Bavarian March of the Nordgau, which, however, was seized by King Conrad III of Germany upon the margrave's death in 1146.[2] To secure his hold on the Egerland, Conrad III married his nephew Frederick of Hohenstaufen to Diepold's daughter, Adelaide, before 2 March 1147 in the city of Eger.[3] Frederick had just returned from the Second Crusade; he succeeded his father Frederick the One-Eyed as Duke of Swabia one month later and added his wife's extended dowry to his estates.
  
  Adelaide and Frederick's marriage was not successful, however. According to some later sources, this was because Adelaide committed adultery.[4] Adelaide rarely made public appearances and was not present for Frederick's election as the successor of his paternal uncle, Conrad III, on 4 March 1152, nor for his coronation as King of Germany at Aachen Cathedral five days later.
  
  Adelaide was Frederick's queen consort, but the couple remained childless.[5] In 1153 Frederick petitioned Pope Eugene III for an annulment. The separation was granted and confirmed by the Bishop of Constance in March 1153; the justification given on grounds of consanguinity.[6] Frederick immediately began to court the Byzantine princess Maria Komnena, though to no avail.
  
  No longer a queen, Adelaide, apparently unhampered by her former husband, soon after entered into a morganatic marriage with Dietho of Ravensburg, a ministerialis in the service of Duke Welf VI.[7] The marriage produced several children. Dietho died about 1187; Adelaide survived him and died shortly afterwards at the Premonstratensian abbey of Weissenau near Ravensburg.

  === Nobility, duchess of Swabia and german q ===
  Nobility, duchess of Swabia and german queen. She was a daughter of Margrave Diepold III of Vohburg from his second marriage. After her fathers death in 1146 King Conrad III arranged a marriage between her and his nephew Friedrich III of Swabia that was celebrated in the same year. Conrad died on February 15th, 1152 after naming Friedrich his successor. He was crowned three weeks later in Aachen, without his wife. Soon after that he tried to obtain a papal assent for the annulment of his marriage on the grounds of consanguinity, infertility and adultery. The first two seem to be only excuses to end his unhappy marriage, but the third was apparently true. They were divorced in March 1153 in Constance and in the same year or early in the following she married Dietho of Ravensburg a ministerialis (an unfree knight) who was far below her rank. The marriage seems to have been very happy and she bore several children. It is not much known about where or when she died although it is assumed that she died after 1187. Her burial place is not known but it is possible that she was buried at Weissenau Abbey near Ravensburg, since her second husbands family were benefactors of the abbey.
