List of Provençal royal consorts

none

Queens, countesses, and duchesses consort of the Kingdom, County, Duchy of Provence include:

Queen of Provence

:See: List of Frankish queens and List of Burgundian queens. After the division of the Carolingian Empire by the Treaty of Verdun (843), the first of the fraternal rulers of the three kingdoms to die was Lothair I, who divided his middle kingdom in accordance with the custom of the Franks between his three sons. Out of this division came the Kingdom of Provence, given to Lothair's youngest son, Charles. A heritage of royal rule was thus inaugurated in Provence that, though it was often subsumed into one of its larger neighbouring kingdoms, it was just as often proclaiming its own sovereigns.
