Hermann von Sachsenheim

Hermann von Sachsenheim was of noble birth, twice married, and died in 1458. He probably studied law (he was certainly proficient in it), and he was in close contact with the counts of Württemberg: at least once, in 1432, he lent the count a considerable sum (after his second marriage he was, as this shows, quite rich). Together with the notes in the Königsteiner Liederbuch we now have a second clue linking the booklets of the manuscript to the House of Württemberg.
