Herman of Nassau, German: Hermann von Nassau (died 16 July before 1206), was count of Nassau. He later became a clergyman.
Herman was the son of count Rupert III ‘the Bellicose’ of Nassau and Elizabeth of Leiningen.[1][2][3][4]
Herman is mentioned as count of Nassau between 1190 and 1192.[1][2][3] He ruled together with count Walram I of Nassau, his father's cousin.[1][2]
In 1192 Herman became canon of the Saint Peter at Mainz.[1][2] He probably wasn't married and died without offspring.[2]
