George became a strong ally of Maximilian I and supported his campaigns in Swabia , Switzerland , Geldern and Hungary . His wedding with the princess Jadwiga Jagiellon , a daughter of polish Kazimierz IV Of Poland in 1475 was celebrated in Landshut with one of the most splendid festivals of the Middle Age. Since the couple had no son George tried to bequeath the duchy to his daughter Elizabeth and her husband Ruppert of Palatinate , this led to a destructive war of succession after George's death in 1503 / 1504 . Finally he was succeeded by Albert IV Of Bavaria-Munich . Only Neuburg An Der Donau passed to Ruppert's sons Otto-Henry, Elector Palatine (''Ottheinrich'') and Philipp.
