Berthold IV. von Andechs († 12. August 1204) war Graf von Andechs und Herzog von Meranien. Er war der älteste Sohn des Grafen Berthold III. von Andechs und der Hedwig von Wittelsbach.
Um 1170 erstmals belegt, tritt er 1172 als Graf von Andechs auf und um 1175 als Markgraf von Istrien, zehn Jahre später (1185) für das Gebiet bei Rijeka als Herzog von Meranien. Wiederum zehn Jahre später, um 1195, ist er als Vogt von Tegernsee bezeugt.
Er nahm 1186 an König Heinrichs VI. Italienzug teil, später dann in Kaiser Barbarossas Heer am Dritten Kreuzzug. Nach dem Tod Heinrichs VI. stand er im Thronstreit auf der Seite Philipps von Schwaben.
In seiner Zeit erreichte die Familie Andechs-Meranien den Zenit ihres Ansehens. Ihr Besitz reichte von Franken bis an die Adria, und Berthold gelang es, seinen Töchtern sowohl die Krone Ungarns als auch die Frankreichs zu verschaffen, auch wenn die französische Ehe wegen einer nicht anerkannten Scheidung später annulliert wurde.
Berthold starb 1204 und wurde in Dießen bestattet.
Ehe und Nachkommen [Bearbeiten]
