Foundation for Medieval Genealogy
BERTHOLD von Reisensburg ([930]-after 21 Jul 976). The Annales Sancti Emmerammi record that "Perahtold filius Arnulphi" was expelled "de Norica" in 951[182]. His birth date is estimated from his adult career starting in 951, but bearing in mind the likely birth date range of his father based on the estimated birth date of his oldest paternal uncle in [905/10]. The Vita S Oudalrici names "Perehtoldus, filius Arnulfi, de castello Risinesburc" when recording that he fought the Hungarians in [Aug 955][183]. "Otto…imperator augustus" returned property "quod vocatur Metama" previously donated by "Peretoldus Arnoulfi filius" to Kloster Metten by charter dated 21 Jul 976 "per petiticionem Heinrici sanctæ Auguste civitatis episcopi et Liutpaldi marchionis"[184]. m ---. The name of Berthold's wife is not known. Berthold & his wife had [one possible] child:
i) [FRIEDRICH [I] "Roch" (-Jerusalem before 1020, bur Jerusalem). According to Wegener, Graf Friedrich [I] was the son of Berthold von Reisensburg[185]. He bases this on "Berthold" witnessing several exchanges of property in the oberen Isar dated [990/99], and equating him with Berthold von Reisensburg. Several points can be made about this theory. Firstly, it seems surprising that such an illustrious connection with the Luitpoldinger Dukes of Bavaria would not have been mentioned by the various contemporary sources which relate the early history of the Grafen von Diessen. Secondly, the estimated birth date of Berthold von Reisensburg is restricted to the limited period [929/31], bearing in mind the known dates of his own career and the likely birth date of his father. His last known mention is dated 976. Another burst of activity fourteen years after this date, when he would have been in his sixties, would be surprising. Thirdly, judging from the 976 entry, Berthold von Reisensburg appears to have fallen into disgrace with Emperor Otto III. There is no record of his return to favour. It is therefore likely that his descendants (if any) fell into obscurity. Fourthly, it is surprising that Berthold von Reisensburg would not have been described as comes even in entries relating to the period after his disgrace, as he would presumably have continued to claim and use the title.

Note: Berthold von Reisensburg , also Perchtold , (* around 930; † around 999) from the aristocratic Luitpoldinger family was the only known son of the Bavarian Count Palatine Arnulf II , who died in July 954 in front of Regensburg in the fight against the besieging troops of King Otto I . Berthold's mother, whose name has not been handed down, probably came from Swabia .
Berthold took part in the uprising of his father and the Swabian duke Liudolf against Otto I in 953/54 and, after its suppression in 955 , was banished by the king to his mother 's allodial estate , the Reisensburg . From there, according to the "Vita Sancti Oudalrici", [1] he is said to have warned the Hungarians besieging Augsburg of the approach of the royal army , which then won the battle on the Lechfeld on August 10, 955 .
After the death of Otto I, Berthold supported his cousin Heinrich the Brawler in his conspiracy against Otto II.
