Radegund, niece of the King of Thuringia, is brought before King Chlothar I (r. 511-561), ruler of the Frankish kingdom of Soissons. Chlothar would take Radegund back to Soissons as his spoil of war, and would later make her one of his wives. Illustration by an unknown artist from an 11th-century manuscript.
