Herman was the son of count Rupert III ‘the Bellicose’ of Nassau and Elizabeth of Leiningen.

Herman is mentioned as count of Nassau between 1190 and 1192. He ruled together with count Walram I of Nassau, his father's cousin.

In 1192 Herman became canon of the Saint Peter at Mainz. He probably wasn't married and died without offspring.
