Biography Beatrix was the daughter of Margrave Louis V of Brandenburg (1315–1361), the eldest son of Holy Roman Emperor Louis IV. Her mother was Louis' first wife Margaret (1305–1340), daughter of King Christopher II of Denmark.

Beatrix and Erik both died in 1359. It is believed that her husband died of the Black Death, and that Beatrix, who gave birth to a stillborn son, also died of plague. Some historians believe she and her son were buried at the Black Friars' Monastery of Stockholm.
