Wife of Engelbert, Duke of Carinthia.

In 1124, he was raised to the Duchy of Carinthia and held it until his retirement in 1135. He was the son of Egelbert I of Sponheim and his wife Hadwig.

His younger brother Henry III was created Duke of Carinthia in 1122 and Engelbert succeeded him in 1124, having already replaced Poppo II in Carniola.
