URACH AND MÖMPELGARD
In the 1442 Treaty of Nürtingen, both brothers decided to divide Württemberg. Ludwig I, father of the Urach line, received the Urach portion with areas west and south, including areas in the Alsace. After the death of his mother, Henriette, Mömpelgard also became part of his realm. Ludwig elevated Urach to a residential city. His brother, Ulrich V, father of the Stuttgart line, received the eastern and northern portions with the residential city in Stuttgart. As with these two brothers, Mömpelgard would facilitate dynastic divisions repeatedly in the coming centuries.
