Anna of Kiev

(1036 - Aft 1076)

Daughter of Jaroslav, grand duke of Kiev and Ingegerd of Sweden, Anna was born in 1036. On 19 May 1051 in Reims she married Henri I, king of France, son of Robert II 'le Pieux' and Constance de Provence. They had three sons of whom two would have progeny. Henri died in 1060 and about a year later she married Raoul de Crépy, count of Valois but he was excommunicated as he was related to the late king in a forbidden degree.

Anna introduced the Christian name Philippe to France, giving it to her eldest son from her first marriage, who was to reign as Philippe I. Anna died after 1076.
