Gerhard V of Jülich (before 1250 – 29 July 1328), Count of Jülich (1297–1328), was the youngest son of William IV, Count of Jülich and Richardis of Guelders, daughter of Gerard III, Count of Guelders. Gerhard succeeded his brother Walram as Count of Jülich in 1297.
A member of the House of Jülich, Gerhard VI (died 1360) married the heiress of Berg in 1348; in 1380 his son William was created duke; and in 1423 Duke Adolf also inherited Jülich, thus uniting the two duchies and associated lands. When the male line became extinct in 1511, the territories passed to John III, duke of Cleves.
The state of Jülich-Kleve emerged in western Germany at the end of the middle age as a result of inheritances and marriages, which united the duchies of Jülich , Kleve and Berg as well as the counties of Mark and Ravensberg.
