Rulers
The line of Roman Catholic Bishop of Chełmno.
| Ruler | Reign | Length | How it ended · source | To the ruler before |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| John George, Prince of Hohenzollern-Hechingen | 1623 – 1623 | under a year | ending not on record | |
| Karol von Hohenzollern | 1785 – — | no end recorded | ending not on record |
2 rulers, 2 with terms dated as terms, covering 1623 – 1785. Median reign 0 years. 0 of 1 handovers irregular - a killing, a deposition, a rival claimant, a rising or a coup beside it. A blank in the last column means no kin on record, which is coverage, never “unrelated”.
