Unruoch II of Friuli

Unruoch II (also known as Unroch II) (died 853) was a Frankish nobleman and friend of Charlemagne.[1] In particular, he was witness to the emperor's will in 811.

He was the Frankish Duke (Margrave) of Friuli before 846. He may have been the son of Unruoch I of Friuli or Berengar, Count of Friuli. He married Engeltrude (Engletron), daughter of Beggo, Count of Toulouse and had the following issue:

  • Eberhard of Friuli, a son, his successor (c. 815-816 – 866), who married Gisela, daughter of Louis the Pious
  • Berengar the Wise, a son who was killed in battle (c. 836)
  • Amadee of Friuli, a son who became Count of Payn Langres (b. 825)
  • Ternois of Friuli, a daughter (b. 825), who married Count Gebhard Nieder-Lahngau
