Henry was driven out of Saxony in 1073, but returned and defeated the Saxons at Hohenburg. He imprisonned rebellious German Bishops, which got him into trouble with Pope Gregory VII. Henry was excommunicated on 22 February, 1076, but absolved on 28 January, 1077.

Some of the German princes tried to depose Henry and place Rudolf, Duke of Swabia, on the throne. Civil war continued until 1080 when Rudolf was killed at Merseburg. Pope Gregory again excommunicated Henry who then succeeded in having the pope deposed and replaced with Guibert of Ravenna as Clement III.

Henry IV escaped from prison, rallied his supporters, and defeated his son shortly before his death.
