  Daughter of the Visigoth king Athanagild and wife of the Frankish king Siegibert I of Metz. Born an Arian, she converted to Catholicism. When Siegebert was assassinated and her son Childebert II toook the throne, Siegebert's brother King Chilperic of Soissons banished Brunhild and imprisoned Ingund and Chlodosind. Chilperic's son Merovech then disobeyed his father and married Brunhild. Chilperic was outraged and the two agreed to separate. Later, Fredegund, wife of Chilperic, nearly had her assassinated. Until the end of her life, she was the target of many assassination attempts, and present during many political meetings between her son and his uncles and cousins.
  
  When King Childebert was assassinated in 595, Queen Brunhild ruled in the place of his two sons, Theudebert II and Theuderic II. Brunhild lived in the court of Theudebert in Austrasia until he married Bilichild. Brunhild saw her as competition but could not convince her grandson not to marry her. Instead, she left the court and was received warmly in Burgundy by Theuderic. He married the Catholic Ermenberta, daughter of King Recared I of the Visigoths. After a year, Brunhild convinced this one to divorce her and take back his concubines. In 612, Brunhild urged Theuderic to attack his brother whom he defeated and killed. The next year, however, the 26-year old king died of dysentery. Brunhild chose Sigebert II, son of Theuderic, to rule as king but Clotar King of Soissons ordered him executed, taking control of all the Frankish kingdoms. That year, he had Brunhild brutally tortured and executed. (Was tied to the tail of a wild horse.) She was 68 years old.
