Jeanne III, Countess of Burgundy

Jeanne III, Countess of Burgundy

Joan of Burgundy (2 May1308 – 1349), also known as Jeanne de Bourgogne or Jeanne de France was the eldest daughter of King Philip V of France and Joanna II of Burgundy.

She was married in 1318 to Eudes IV, Duke of Burgundy, as part of a settlement between the two men regarding the French succession (Eudes had previously supported the right of his niece - and Jeanne's cousin - Joan to inherit the French throne); Jeanne thus became Duchess-consort of Burgundy. She became Countess of Burgundy and Artois in her own right in 1330, following the death of her mother.

Jeanne bore six children. With the exception of Philip, all were stillborn or died in infancy. Philip predeceased her; her titles therefore passed to her grandson, Philip I of Burgundy upon her death in 1349.
