Elisabeth of Hohenstaufen

Elisabeth of Hohenstaufen

Elisabeth of Hohenstaufen (called Beatriz de Suabia in Spanish) (1203 – Toro, Spain, 1235), Queen of Castile 1219-1235, Queen of Leon 1230–1235. She was daughter of Philip, Duke of Swabia and King of Germany, and Irene Angelina, daughter of Emperor Isaac II Angelos of the Byzantine Empire.

After the death of Philip, she became the ward of her cousin, Frederick, King of Sicily (later Emperor Frederick II); he then married her to Ferdinand III, King of Castile and Leon (called "the Saint"), the marriage taking place at the end of the November of 1219 or 1220 in the Royal Monastery of San Zoilo in Carrión de los Condes (Palencia). In Castile, she was known as "Beatriz".
