Frans van Brederode

Frans van Brederode, Dutch rebel (d. 1490)
Frans van Brederode (February 4, 1465 – August 11, 1490) was a rebel in Holland against the rule of emperor Maximilian, father and regent of Duke Philip the Handsome of Burgundy.

Duke Philip was Count of Holland - Brederode belonged to the Hook faction in Holland, which didn't acknowledge Maximilian.

Brederode was born in Vianen. He conquered Rotterdam in 1488 and tried to conquer many other cities. He was successful only in Woerden and Geertruidenberg in 1489. He was defeated during the Battle of Brouwershaven (1490) in 1490, and subsequently died in prison in Dordrecht of the wounds received during the battle.

He was a son of Reinoud II van Brederode and Yolande van Lailang.
