Lutgardis of Luxemburg, also known as Liutgardis, Liutgarde and Lutgard, (955/962 - ca. 1005) was a daughter of Siegfried of Luxemburg and Hedwig of Nordgau. Her sister was Cunigunde of Luxemburg. She married Arnulf, Count of West Frisia (Holland). They had three children: Dirk III of Holland, for whom she acted as regent from 993 to 1005 Siegfried of Holland (985-1030), married Thetburga (985-) Adelina of Holland As the sister-in-law of Emperor Henry II, she enjoyed considerable influence. With his help she managed to maintain the county for her son Dirk III, acting as regent. On 20 September 993, Liutgard donated her properties at Rugge to Saint Peter's abbey of Ghent for the soul of her husband.[1] According to Thietmar's Chronicle, possibly in June 1005, she made peace with the West-Frisians through mediation by Emperor Henry.[2] The date of Lutgardis' death is not clear in view of conflicting sources including Annales Egmundani. It may well have been in 1005 or even later. She was buried in Egmont.[3] References ^ Cawley, Charles, Hollard & Frisia project from Medieval Lands Project, Foundation for Medieval Genealogy, retrieved August 2012,[better source needed].
