About Prangarda of Canossa
Prangarda of Canossa (died after 991), was a northern Italian noblewoman.
Life Prangarda was a member of the House of Canossa. Her father was Adalbert Atto of Canossa, and her mother was Hildegard (who was probably a member of the Supponid dynasty). Prangarda married Manfred I of Turin, perhaps after the siege of Canossa in 951, but more likely after 962. In 991 Prangarda issued a charter, with Manfred's consent, in which she sold her share of the estate of Vilinianum in Parma. It is clear from this charter that Prangarda's dowry included lands totalling at least one thousand iugera (roughly 650 acres) in Parma and Reggio.
Children With Manfred, Prangarda had several children, including: Ulric Manfred Alric Otto Atto Hugo Wido
