Biography
Adelheid von Meißen was born after 1160, the exact date and place are not known. She met her future husband Přemysl Otakar I of Bohemia during his exile in Meißen during the late 1170's. They married in 1178. In Bohemia she was subsequently known as Adléta Míšeňská.
In 1798 she was rejected by her husband who then married Árpádházi Konstancia. Adelheid returned to Meißen but continued to fight to have her marriage recognized. This effort came to an end only in 1210 when Pope Innocent III legitimized all the king's children from both marriages thereby acknowledging the marriage to Konstancia.
Adelheid died in 1211 in the Heilig Kreuz monastery in Meißen.[1][2]
