Ebba Bielke

Ebba Bielke (1570–1618), was a Swedish baroness convicted of high treason.

Her father and brother were followers of Sigismund III Vasa against Charles IX of Sweden in the civil war of the 1590s.

[1] In 1605, Hogenskild Bielke was brought to trial for high treason and executed on the evidence of, among other things, his correspondence with his daughter.
