Agnes of Loon
Agnes of Loon (1150–1191), was a duchess consort of Bavaria, married to Otto I of Wittelsbach, Duke of Bavaria.

Agnes was described as a forceful regent, who managed to secure the inheritance of her son.
Gerard II, Count of Loon
Count Gerard of Loon, was son and successor of Louis I, Count of Loon, and Agnes of Metz. He was count of Loon and of Rieneck.
