Biographie
Elle fonde l'abbaye de Münsterschwarzach vers 780 et épouse Charlemagne en octobre 783 à Worms2, à la suite du décès d'Hildegarde de Vintzgau. De ce mariage, naissent deux filles : Théodrade (v. 785 - 844/853), abbesse d’Argenteuil et Hiltrude (787-815), abbesse de Faremoutiers.
Durant la campagne contre les Avars en 791, Charlemagne lui adresse une lettreN 1, la seule lettre de Charlemagne qui soit parvenue jusqu'à nous3.
En 792, une conspiration contre Charlemagne, formée par des nobles autour de Pépin le Bossu4, fils d'Himiltrude, première épouse ou concubine de Charlemagne, a parmi différents motifs, la "cruauté de Fastrade"N 2.
Elle meurt à Francfort en 794 lors de la tenue du synode convoqué par l'empereur dans cette ville et est inhumée dans l'abbaye Saint-Alban devant Mayence.
