Adolf of Egmond (Grave , February 12, 1438 – Tournai , June 27, 1477) was a Duke of Guelders , Count of Zutphen from 1465 to 1471 and in 1477.
Life
[ edit ]
Adolf was the son of Arnold, Duke of Guelders and Catherine of Cleves . In the battle of succession for Guelders , he imprisoned in 1465 his own father and became Duke with the support of Philip the Good , who also made him Knight in the Order of the Golden Fleece . In 1468 he won the Battle of Straelen against Cleves, but Charles the Bold reinstated his father Arnold, and Adolf was imprisoned in Hesdin .
After the death of Charles the Bold in 1477, Adolf was liberated by the Flemish . He died the same year at the head of a Flemish army besieging Tournai, after the States of Guelders had recognized him as Duke. His body was buried in Tournai Cathedral .
