About Euphemia of Pomerania
Lived 1285 – 1330 (aged 44–45). Euphemia of Pomerania was a Danish consort.
Euphemia of Pomerania (c. 1285 – 26 July 1330) was Queen consort of Denmark from 1320 to 1330 as the spouse of King Christopher II. She was the daughter of Bogislaw IV, Duke of Pomerania, and his second spouse, Margarete of Rügen.
The period of her reign was chaotic, marked by the dissolution of the kingdom and mounting debts. As a result, few records of her life survive and not much is known about Euphemia. She and Christopher had at least 6 children, including Erik Christoffersen, Otto, Duke of Lolland and Estonia, and King Valdemar IV. Her tomb effigy is presented in royal dress and lies next to her husband and their daughter Agnes.
Euphemia and Christopher had at least six children, including: Margarete (1305–1340), Erik (1307–1331), Otto (c. 1310–1347), and Valdemar (1320–1375). Two of their children died in infancy: Agnes (b. 1312) and Heilwig (c. 1315).
