Ansemund - Definition and Overview

Ansemund was the Goth count of Nimes that was ruling the county in 752. Was killed in 754.

In 752 the goth counts of Nimes, Melguelh, Agde and Beziers refused allegance to the cordobese emir and declared their loyalty to the Frankish Kindom. The count of Nimes, Ansemund, seems that has some authority over the remaining counts. The goth counts and the franks started to besiege Narbonne that resisted. In 754 a anti frank reaction led by Ermeniard, killed Ansemund, but without succes and Radulf was designated new count from the frankish court
