Passauer Vertrag
On 28 January 1552, Philip II concluded a new contract of inheritance with his brothers. After his death, Maria Caspara would receive Bürgel as her wittum and his brothers would inherit the other possessions. Philip II's children would join the clergy. Encouraged by the new political circumstances and the Peace of Passau, Philip II thought better of it and on 28 September 1552, he married Maria Caspara in the chapel of Broich Castle. The ceremony was led by the Lutheran priest Johann Kremer; apart from their two children, no relatives were present.
