Theobald II of Bar

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

 (Redirected from Thibault II of Bar)

Theobald II, Count of Bar (1221-1291) was a count of Bar. He was the son of Henry II of Bar and Philippa of Dreux. He became count of Bar when his father was killed in the Holy Land on 13 November 1239, but news of Henry's death only reached him at the start of 1240. As Theobald was still a minor, his mother ruled as regent until 17 March 1242. Theobald's own children included his successor Henry III and the bishop Reginald of Bar.

Theobald II had two wives: firstly, Jeanne of Dampierre (m. Mar/31 Aug 1245) and secondly, Jeanne de Toucy (m. 1246). He had about 15 children with his second wife.
