Judith of Schweinfurt
- Born: Bef 1003
- Marriage (1): Duke Bretislaus of Bohemia I
- Marriage (2): King Peter Urseolo of Hungary (the Venetian)
- Died: 2 Aug 1058
General Notes:
House of Premysl and the Babenbergs would have confirmed their good relationship with Judith's marriage in 1020. Judith was a desirable bride, but Oldrich of Bohemia had only one son, Bretislaus, which was illegal, complicating the marriage with the high-born Judith. Bretislaus solved the problem by kidnapping Judith from a monastery although he was never punished for the crime. He married Judith some time later. Their first son Spytihnev was born after almost ten years, which led to the hypothesis that the kidnapping happened in 1029, although Judith may have given birth to daughters before her first son.
Judith married Duke Bretislaus of Bohemia I, son of Duke Oldrich of Bohemia and Božena Kresinova. (Duke Bretislaus of Bohemia I was born between 1002 and 1005 and died on 10 Jan 1055.)
Judith next married King Peter Urseolo of Hungary (the Venetian), son of Doge Otto Urseolo of Venice and Gizella of Hungary. (King Peter Urseolo of Hungary (the Venetian) was born circa 1010 and died in 1046.)
