Wratislaus of Brno

Wratislaus of Brno (, , ; died August/September 1156) was the Duke of Moravia from 1125 to 1129 and from 1130 to 1156. He was the first son and successor of Ulrich I, Duke of Brno (died 1092) and an unknown princess (probably of Slavic origin). He did not succeed as half monarch of Moravia (diarch), for all half of Moravia (the west one) as his father Ulrich I, but Brno was already divided into two parts (Brno and Znojmo) and his father Ulrich was co-monarch with his uncle Luitpold of Znojmo in this part. Both brothers together later established a Benedictine monastery and its St. Procopius Basilica in Třebíč and prepared as mausoleum for the Brno-Znojmo branch House of Přemyslid. Wratislaus himself probably initiated the establishment of the Royal cathedral chapter of St. Peter and Paul in Brno, formally created later in 1292.
