Born in Jungingen in southwestern Germany, Konrad was the elder brother of Ulrich von Jungingen, who was his successor as Grand Master of the Teutonic Knights.
An invasion army under Konrad conquered the island of Gotland in 1398, destroyed parts of Visby, and drove the Victual Brothers out of Gotland and the Baltic Sea. The Monastic State of the Teutonic Knights in Prussia was at the peak of its power during Konrad's leadership.
Konrad died at Marienburg Castle and was buried there.
