What is Adolf, King of the Romans?
[[File:Adolf von nassau montanus.JPG|thumb|200px]] '''Adolf''' (c. 1255 – 2 July 1298) was the [[count of Nassau]] from about 1276 and the elected [[king]] of [[Germany]] from 1292 until his deposition by the prince-electors in 1298. He was never crowned by the pope, which would have secured him the imperial title. He was the first physically and mentally healthy ruler of the Holy Roman Empire ever to be deposed without a papal [[excommunication]]. Adolf died shortly afterwards in the [[Battle of Göllheim]] fighting against his successor [[Albert of Habsburg]]. ==References== {{reflist}} [[Category:1255 births]] [[Category:1298 deaths]] [[Category:Kings and Queens in Germany]] {{bio-stub}}
