Rigunth

Rigunth (c. 569 A.D. – after 589 A.D.), also known as Rigundis, was a Frankish princess, daughter of the Merovingian King Chilperic I and Fredegund.

Rigunth was the eldest child and only recorded daughter of Chilperic I and Queen Fredegund.

About 583, she was betrothed to Recared, eldest son of Leovigild, King of the Visigoths.

During the journey King Chilperic died and the soldiers escorting the princess took everything they could steal and fled.
