Jacob
I was a man of deep religious beliefs, well known as a founder of churches.
He founded the monastery at Fremersberg and was a major benefactor of the Stiftskirche at Baden-Baden.
According to his father's precepts, only two of his sons were to be considered heirs of the margravate.

George, after taking a religious profession in his youth, returned briefly to the world, but in 1454 reverted to
holy orders and later became Bishop of Metz.

I was the opposite of his father; Enea Silvio de Piccolomini (Pope Pius II) characterized him as "famous among the Germans for his justice and intelligence".
