Title Countess of Flanders 1139 – 1157 Key data Predecessor Margaret of Clermont-Beauvaisis Successor Elisabeth of Vermandois Biography Dynasty Engineers Death 1165 Bethany Monastery ( Kingdom of Jerusalem ) Father Fulk V of Anjou Mother Erembourg of Maine Spouse 1. Guillaume Clito 2. Thierry d'Alsace Children (2) Philippe d'Alsace Mathieu d'Alsace Marguerite d'Alsace Gertrude d'Alsace Mathilde Pierre d'Alsace Biography Daughter of Foulque d'Anjou , count of Anjou and Touraine, then king of Jerusalem , she was first married to the son of the Norman Robert Courteheuse , Guillaume Cliton, future count of Flanders to whom she brought the county of Maine . Guillaume died in 1128. Having followed her father who had become king of Jerusalem, she married the new Count of Flanders Thierry d'Alsace in Palestine ( 1139 ). During Thierry d'Alsace's second stay in the Holy Land (1147-49), she governs, while pregnant, the county of Flanders. Baudouin IV of Hainaut took the opportunity to attack Flanders, Sibylle counter-attacked and ravaged Hainaut, while Baudouin devastated Artois. The bishop of Reims Samson de Mauvoisin intervenes and a truce is then signed. Thierry takes revenge on his neighbor on his return. In 1157 , wanting to see Palestine again, she persuaded Thierry to accompany her on her third expedition. There, she convinces him to separate, to become a nun and take the veil at the monastery of Bethany (Saint Lazarus of Jerusalem), where she will die. A small cross in walrus ivory, in the Mosan style , is believed to have been commissioned by the Countess Sibylle before her final departure for Jerusalem. This is the central part of a binding (book cover) ; we see on the lower part a woman in prayer surrounded by the inscription naming Sibyl. This cross is exhibited in the Department of Works of Art of the Louvre Museum .
