Battle of Welfesholz
The Battle of Welfesholz was fought on 11 February 1115 in the Mansfeld area of Saxony. Saxon princes led by Duke Lothair of Supplinburg defeated the army of Emperor Henry V, whose efforts to extend royal power and lands in Saxony had provoked revolt. The defeat ended effective Salian authority in Saxony and strengthened Lothair, who was elected king in 1125.
