Gereon Otto von Gutmann zu Sobernheim was born in Koblenz, Germany in 1571 and ordained a priest in 1598.[1][2] On 30 August 1606, he was appointed during the papacy of Pope Paul V as Auxiliary Bishop of Cologne and Titular Bishop of Cyrene.[1][2] On 9 October 1616, he was consecrated bishop by Antonio Albergati, Bishop of Bisceglie.[1] He served as Auxiliary Bishop of Cologne until his death on 25 September 1638.[1][2]
