Urraca of Portugal

Urraca of Portugal (Portuguese pronunciation: [uˈʁakɐ]; 1148 – 1211) was the queen of León from 1165 until 1175 as the wife of King Ferdinand II.

[2] The marriage of Ferdinand II and Urraca was annulled in 1175 by Pope Alexander III because the two were second cousins, great-grandchildren of Alfonso VI of León and Castile.

These properties included Castroverde de Campos and Mansilla in León, and Salas and San Andrés in Asturias.

[4] She was present in 1188 at the coronation of her son Alfonso IX, who succeeded his father Ferdinand II on 22 January 1188.

[3] Her presence is registered for the last time in medieval charters in 1211, when she donated the village of Castrotoraf, which she had received from Ferdinand in 1165 as a wedding gift, to the Cathedral of Zamora.
