Vratislaus II of Bohemia
During the Investiture Controversy in 1076, King Henry IV of Germany granted Budissin Land to Duke Vratislaus II of Bohemia as an Imperial fief in turn for his support in the Saxon Rebellion. The son-in-law of Vratislaus, Count Wiprecht of Groitzsch, ruled it independently from 1084 to 1108 residing at Ortenburg Castle. In 1091, a further donation to the church was made, when Henry IV transferred five other villages in the "Milzenerland", four of them south of Göda. For 1144 it is documented that the "Zagost" province, an area southeast of Görlitz around Zawidów ("Seidenberg"), was a part of Budissin Land. Also in this region, the Diocese of Meissen was equipped with possessions. Upper Lusatia reached the Kwisa ("Queis"), the border to Silesia and its largest expansion to the east, already in the 12th century.
