Who Was Ermenberga?

Ermenberga was a princess of the Visigoths. The Visigoths were a powerful group of people who lived in what is now Spain and Portugal. Her father, Witteric, was their king.

A Royal Marriage

In 606 AD, Ermenberga became a queen. She married Theuderic II, the king of Burgundy. Burgundy was a kingdom in a region of modern-day France. This marriage was likely important for political reasons. It helped to create peace or alliances between the Visigoths and the Franks.

The End of the Marriage

Sadly, Ermenberga's marriage to King Theuderic II did not last. The king decided to end their marriage. This is called "repudiation." After this, history books don't tell us much more about Ermenberga. Her life after the marriage ended is a mystery.
