(1248 - 28 Jan 1271)
Daughter of Jaime I 'the Conqueror', king of Aragón and Violante of Hungary, Isabelle was born in 1243. On 28 May 1262 in Clermont-en-Auvergne she married the future Philippe III, king of France and they had four sons, of whom two, Philippe IV and Charles, would have progeny.
Having accompanied her husband and father-in-law on the crusade to Tunis, after the death of Louis IX she became queen of France, but she never set foot in France as queen. While on her way home to France, she died tragically on 28 January 1271 in Cosenza in Calabria from a fall from her horse; she was then pregnant with her fifth child. She was buried in the Basilica of Saint-Denis. Her tomb, like many others, was desecrated by the revolutionaries in 1793.
