Raymond V of Provence Berenger 1
- Born: 1198
- Marriage: Beatrice de Savoie on 5 Jun 1219
- Died: 19 Aug 1245 aged 47
General Notes:
Berenger was the last and most illustrious of the Royal Provençal Counts; and, even had he not been the sovereign of the land of song, his own verses would have entitled him to a distinguised rank among the Troubadour poets.
He was relatively impoverished count who could provide little dowry for his
daughters.
Noted events in his life were:
• Acceded: Count of Provence 4th, 1209.
Raymond married Beatrice de Savoie, daughter of Thomas of Savoy de Maurienne and Margaret of Faucigny, on 5 Jun 1219. (Beatrice de Savoie was born in 1206 and died in 1266.)
