Gibicho’s Family Tree

About Gibicho →

Family

• Grimhild(spouse),Gernot(child),Giselher(child),Gunther(child),Kriemhild(child)— Marriage

  Gibicho and Grimhild are the royal parents of the Burgundian dynasty, whose children — the kings Gunther, Gernot, and Giselher, and the princess Kriemhild — are swept into the tragedy of the Nibelung treasure and Sigurd's murder.

  ⚠ In the Nibelungenlied, the parents are Dancrat and Uote, and there is no Guttorm. This group follows the Völsunga saga/Thidrekssaga composite tradition (Gjúki/Gibicho and Grimhild).

• Guttorm(child)

  Guttorm is the half-brother of Gunther, Gernot, Giselher, and Kriemhild — Gibicho's son by another woman, not Grimhild's child, and therefore not bound by the oath of brotherhood that protected Sigurd from his sworn brothers.
