About Brigida Haraldsdotter

For a discussion of some questions relating to her marriages, see Leo van de Pas, soc.genealogy.medieval, June 21, 2012.

Brigida Haraldsdotter (Swedish: Birgitta Haraldsdotter), (d. after c. 1180), was a medieval Swedish queen, Queen consort of King Magnus (II) of Sweden.

Brigida Haraldsdotter was the illegitimate daughter of King Harald IV of Norway (1103-1136); her Irish name was the same name that her fathers' Irish mother, Brigida O'Brien (d. 1138) had. She was married to Prince Magnus Henriksen, son of her step-mother Princess Ingrid Ragnvaldsdotter of Sweden and Ingrid's first husband, Prince Henrik Skadelår of Denmark, who claimed the Swedish throne through his mother in 1160-1161, during which she was called Quuen Birgitta of Sweden for one year. After his death, she remarried the Swedish jarl Birger Brosa; the daughter she had during her marriage to Brosa, Ingegerd Birgersdotter of Bjelbo, was later to be Queen of Sweden.

The dates of her birth and death are not known, though her daughter's birth year is set at 1180. The dates c. 1131-1208 have ben suggested, also that she, after the death of her second husband in 1202, retired to the Riseberga Nunnery.
