German queen. The daughter of Burchard III of Hohenberg was born around 1225 in Swabia. She married Rudolf of Habsburg around 1253 in Alsace and bore him ten children of which only her youngest didn't survive to adulthood. She is considered the progenitrix of the Habsburg family. She died in Vienna and, following her last wish, was buried in the cathedral of Basel. Later her body was transferred to the monastery of Sankt Blasien in the Black Forest. When this monastery was secularized she and the bodies of 15 other Habsburgs were moved to St Paul.
