 +

Until 1207, Peter disappeared from contemporary sources, it is presumable that he supported the rebellious [[Andrew II of Hungary|Duke Andrew]] against King Emeric, thus unable to hold any political offices in the royal court. Following Andrew's accession to the throne in 1205, Peter belonged to the Queen's royal household.<ref name='Markó_290'/> Between 1207 and 1210, he served as Judge royal for Queen Gertrude ({{lang-la|curialis comes regine}}), after that he was replaced by [[Bánk Bár-Kalán]] in that position.<ref name='Zsoldos_65'>Zsoldos 2011, p. 65.</ref> In addition, Peter also functioned as ''ispán'' of Szolnok County for the second time (1207)<ref name='Zsoldos_209'/> and ''ispán'' of [[Csanád County]] from 1207 until his death.<ref name='Zsoldos_146'>Zsoldos 2011, p. 146.</ref> Finally he also held the office of ''ispán'' of Bács County between 1210 and 1212.<ref name='Zsoldos_126'>Zsoldos 2011, p. 126.</ref> In 1211, Peter participated in the royal campaign against the [[Principality of Halych]].<ref name='Markó_290'/>
 +
 +
==Assassination of Queen Gertrude==
 +
When Andrew II left Hungary for a new campaign against Halych, a group of Hungarian lords, taking advantage of the King's absence, captured and murdered Queen Gertrude and many of her courtiers in the [[Pilis Hills]] on 28 September 1213.<ref name='Engel_91'/> Gertrude's body was torn to pieces, while her brother [[Berthold (patriarch of Aquileia)|Berthold]], the [[Archbishop of Kalocsa-Bács|Archbishop of Kalocsa]] and [[Leopold VI, Duke of Austria]] narrowly escaped with their lives. Gertrude was buried in the [[Pilis Abbey]].<ref name='Körmendi-b_155'>Körmendi 2009b, p. 155.</ref> According to the contemporary reports, Peter personally slaughtered the Queen, while Palatine Bánk Bár-Kalán, the [[Kacsics|Kacsics brothers]] ([[Simon Kacsics|Simon]] and [[Michael Kacsics|Michael]]) and other lords were also involved in the conspiracy.<ref name='Körmendi-a_196'>Körmendi 2009a, p. 196.</ref>
 +
 +
The motivation of the murderers is uncertain. According to later tradition, Queen Gertrude's brother (Berthold) raped Bánk's wife. Bánk killed the Queen because he felt she had encouraged her brother.<ref name='Engel_91'/> This version appeared in the ''Chronicon rhythmicum Austriacum'' around 1270,<ref name='Körmendi-b_193'>Körmendi 2009b, p. 193.</ref> which was repeated by the 14th-century Hungarian chronicles (''[[Chronica Hungarorum]]'', ''[[Annales Posonienses]]'' etc.). Formerly linguist János Horváth argued the chroniclers in fact referred to the coeval [[Felician Záh]]'s assassination attempt (1330) against [[Charles I of Hungary]], when describing Gertrude's death.<ref name='Körmendi-a_198'>Körmendi 2009a, p. 198.</ref> [[József Katona]]'s ''[[Bánk bán]]'' (which was set to music by [[Ferenc Erkel]]), where Peter appears as ''Ban Petúr'', also preserved and spread this version.<ref name='Markó_209'>Markó 2006, p. 209.</ref> Further records from the 15th century, based on ''De fundatoribus monasterii Diessensis'', says Gertrude was innocently murdered, because she had not known Berthold's intention and crime.<ref name='Körmendi-b_186'>Körmendi 2009b, p. 186.</ref>
 +
 +
It is much more likely that the Hungarian lords led by Peter, who were aggrieved at Queen Gertrude's favoritism towards her German entourage, feared to permanently lose their court positions and influence. Formerly, Gertrude's two brothers, Ekbert, [[Bishop of Bamberg]], and Henry II, Margrave of Istria, fled to Hungary in 1208 after they were accused of participating in the murder of [[Philip of Swabia|Philip]], [[King of the Germans]].<ref name='Engel_90'>Engel 2001, p. 90.</ref> Berthold of Kalocsa (since 1206) was also appointed [[Ban of Slavonia]] in 1209 and later [[Voivode of Transylvania]] in 1212 by the dismissals of Bánk Bár-Kalán and Michael Kacsics respectively. Andrew's generosity towards his wife's German relatives and courtiers obviously discontented the local lords. The [[Anonymus (chronicler)|unidentified author]] of the ''[[Gesta Hungarorum]]'' also referred to the Germans from the [[Holy Roman Empire]] when he sarcastically mentioned that "{{nobr|now ...}} the Romans gaze on the goods of Hungary."<ref>''Anonymus, Notary of King Béla: The Deeds of the Hungarians'' (ch. 9), p. 27.</ref> Some sources also mention [[John, Archbishop of Esztergom]]'s famous letter (''[[Reginam occidere]]'').<ref name='Körmendi-b_165'>Körmendi 2009b, p. 165.</ref> Historian Tamás Körmendi considered Peter's personal motivation behind the murder.<ref name='Körmendi2014_120'>Körmendi 2014, p. 120.</ref>
 +
 +
==Execution==
 +
When Andrew II heard the news of his wife's murder, he interrupted the campaign in Halych and returned to home. He ordered the execution of the murderer, Peter, son of Töre, who was [[Impalement|impaled]] in the autumn of 1213 and his lands were also confiscated.<ref name='Engel_91'/> According to the continuation of [[Magnus von Reichersberg]]'s chronicle, Peter was murdered along with his wife and entire family.<ref name='Körmendi-b_168'>Körmendi 2009b, p. 168.</ref> However, Peter's accomplices, including Palatine Bánk, did not receive severe punishments, due to the current political situation and Andrew's power instability.<ref name='Engel_91'/> Bánk also held several influential positions even after the assassination.<ref name='Markó_209'/>
 +
 +
Only [[Béla IV of Hungary|Duke Béla]], son of Andrew and Gertrude, took revenge after he was nominated [[Duke of Transylvania]] and started to revise his father's policy. In 1228, he confiscated the estates of Bánk and the Kacsics brothers, who had plotted against his mother.<ref name='Engel_98'>Engel 2001, p. 98.</ref> According to a royal charter issued in 1237, Béla IV, now as king, donated Peter's former lands to the newly founded the [[Cistercians|Cistercian]] [[Bélakút Abbey]], which belonged to the [[Archdiocese of Kalocsa-Bacs|Archdiocese of Kalocsa]].<ref name='Markó_290'/>

Peter, son of Töre (; executed in 1213) was a Hungarian lord, who served as judge royal in 1198, during the reign of King Emeric.

Peter led a group of Hungarian magnates, who assassinated Queen Gertrude on 28 September 1213.[1]

Career

Peter was the son of Töre (also Turoy, Turwey or Toraj).[1] According to non-authentic charters, he served as ispán of Pozsony County from 1193 to 1195 during the late reign of King Béla III.[2] He was mentioned as ispán of Bihar County in 1197.[3] King Emeric appointed him Judge royal in the following year, replacing Esau.[4] Beside that he also functioned as ispán of Szolnok County.[5] By 1199, he lost both dignities replacing by Mika Ják and Ampud (son of Palatine Ampud) respectively.[4][5]

His lands were laying in Syrmia and south of Bács County.[1] The centre of his estates was Pétervárad – today Petrovaradin, part of the agglomeration of Novi Sad, Serbia – which was named after him.[6] In 1201, he held the position of ispán of Sopron County.[7]

Until 1207, Peter disappeared from contemporary sources, it is presumable that he supported the rebellious Duke Andrew against King Emeric, thus unable to hold any political offices in the royal court. Following Andrew's accession to the throne in 1205, Peter belonged to the Queen's royal household.[1] Between 1207 and 1210, he served as Judge royal for Queen Gertrude (), after that he was replaced by Bánk Bár-Kalán in that position.[8] In addition, Peter also functioned as ispán of Szolnok County for the second time (1207)[5] and ispán of Csanád County from 1207 until his death.[9] Finally he also held the office of ispán of Bács County between 1210 and 1212.[10] In 1211, Peter participated in the royal campaign against the Principality of Halych.[1]

Assassination of Queen Gertrude

When Andrew II left Hungary for a new campaign against Halych, a group of Hungarian lords, taking advantage of the King's absence, captured and murdered Queen Gertrude and many of her courtiers in the Pilis Hills on 28 September 1213.[6] Gertrude's body was torn to pieces, while her brother Berthold, the Archbishop of Kalocsa and Leopold VI, Duke of Austria narrowly escaped with their lives. Gertrude was buried in the Pilis Abbey.[11] According to the contemporary reports, Peter personally slaughtered the Queen, while Palatine Bánk Bár-Kalán, the Kacsics brothers (Simon and Michael) and other lords were also involved in the conspiracy.[12]

The motivation of the murderers is uncertain. According to later tradition, Queen Gertrude's brother (Berthold) raped Bánk's wife. Bánk killed the Queen because he felt she had encouraged her brother.[6] This version appeared in the Chronicon rhythmicum Austriacum around 1270,[13] which was repeated by the 14th-century Hungarian chronicles (Chronica Hungarorum, Annales Posonienses etc.). Formerly linguist János Horváth argued the chroniclers in fact referred to the coeval Felician Záh's assassination attempt (1330) against Charles I of Hungary, when describing Gertrude's death.[14] József Katona's Bánk bán (which was set to music by Ferenc Erkel), where Peter appears as Ban Petúr, also preserved and spread this version.[15] Further records from the 15th century, based on De fundatoribus monasterii Diessensis, says Gertrude was innocently murdered, because she had not known Berthold's intention and crime.[16]

It is much more likely that the Hungarian lords led by Peter, who were aggrieved at Queen Gertrude's favoritism towards her German entourage, feared to permanently lose their court positions and influence. Formerly, Gertrude's two brothers, Ekbert, Bishop of Bamberg, and Henry II, Margrave of Istria, fled to Hungary in 1208 after they were accused of participating in the murder of Philip, King of the Germans.[17] Berthold of Kalocsa (since 1206) was also appointed Ban of Slavonia in 1209 and later Voivode of Transylvania in 1212 by the dismissals of Bánk Bár-Kalán and Michael Kacsics respectively. Andrew's generosity towards his wife's German relatives and courtiers obviously discontented the local lords. The unidentified author of the Gesta Hungarorum also referred to the Germans from the Holy Roman Empire when he sarcastically mentioned that "now ... the Romans gaze on the goods of Hungary."[18] Some sources also mention John, Archbishop of Esztergom's famous letter (Reginam occidere).[19] Historian Tamás Körmendi considered Peter's personal motivation behind the murder.[20]

Execution

When Andrew II heard the news of his wife's murder, he interrupted the campaign in Halych and returned to home. He ordered the execution of the murderer, Peter, son of Töre, who was impaled in the autumn of 1213 and his lands were also confiscated.[6] According to the continuation of Magnus von Reichersberg's chronicle, Peter was murdered along with his wife and entire family.[21] However, Peter's accomplices, including Palatine Bánk, did not receive severe punishments, due to the current political situation and Andrew's power instability.[6] Bánk also held several influential positions even after the assassination.[15]

Only Duke Béla, son of Andrew and Gertrude, took revenge after he was nominated Duke of Transylvania and started to revise his father's policy. In 1228, he confiscated the estates of Bánk and the Kacsics brothers, who had plotted against his mother.[22] According to a royal charter issued in 1237, Béla IV, now as king, donated Peter's former lands to the newly founded the Cistercian Bélakút Abbey, which belonged to the Archdiocese of Kalocsa.[1]
