The coat-of-arms of the counts of Nassau

Herman was the son of count Rupert III of Nassau and Elisabeth of Leiningen.[1][2][3]

Herman is mentioned as count of Nassau between 1190 and 1192. He ruled together with count Walram I of Nassau, his father's cousin.[2][3]

In 1192 Herman became canon of the Saint Peter at Mainz.[2][3] He probably wasn't married and died without offspring.[2]
