king of See also:Aragon, but the duchy of See also:Limburg was the See also:scene of his See also:chief activity and greatest successes. After the death of Waleran IV. in 1279 the See also:succession to this duchy was disputed. His heiress, Ermengarde, had married Reinald I. See also:count of See also:Gelderland. She died childless, but her See also:husband continued to See also:rule in Limburg, although his rights were disputed by Count Adolph of See also:Berg, See also:nephew to Waleran IV. (see LI?aBURG). Not being strong enough to eject his See also:rival, Adolph sold his rights to John of Brabant, and hostilities See also:broke out in 1283. Harassed by desultory warfare and endless negotiations, and seeing no prospect of holding his own against the powerful duke of Brabant, Reinald made over his rights to Henry III. count of See also:Luxemburg, who was a descendant of Waleran III. of Limburg. Henry III. was sustained by the See also:archbishop of See also:Cologne and other See also:allies, as well as by Reinald of Gelderland. The duke of Brabant at once invaded the Rhineland and laid See also:siege to the See also:castle of Woeringen near See also:Bonn. Here he was attacked by the forces of the confederacy on the 5th of See also:June 1288. After a bloody struggle John of Brabant, though at the See also:head of far inferior See also:numbers, was completely victorious. Limburg was henceforth attached to the duchy of Brabant. John consolidated his See also:conquest by giving his daughter in See also:marriage to Henry of Luxemburg (1291). John the Victorious was a perfect See also:model of a feudal See also:prince in the days of See also:chivalry, brave, adventurous, excelling in every See also:form of active exercise, fond of display, generous in See also:temper. He delighted in tournaments, and was always eager personally to take See also:part in jousts. On the 3rd of May 1294, on the occasion of some marriage festivities at See also:Bar, he was wounded in the See also:arm in an encounter by See also:Pierre de Bausner, and died from the effects of the hurt.
