Agnes Hakonardottir, Dame of Borgarsyssel, illegitimate though recognized, by a mistress named Gro or Katrine
Haakon V Magnusson (1270 - May 8, 1319) was king of Norway from 1299 until 1319. He was married to Eufemia of Rügen, and father to Ingeborg Håkonsdotter who married duke Eric Magnusson of Sweden. He is considered to be the last Norwegian king in the Fairhair dynasty. He was the younger surviving son of Magnus the Lawmender, King of Norway, and his wife Ingeborg of Denmark. He succeeded when his older brother king Eirik died heirless. Through his mother (who was daughter of Jutta of Saxony, herself a descendant of Ulvhild of Norway, duchess of Saxony), Haakon descended from king St Olav, Olav II of Norway. During his reign he revived his brother's war policy against Denmark, but in 1309 he finally concluded a peace that in general was the end of Dano-Norwegian wars. In domestic matters he energetically and successfully tried to limit the power of the magnates and to strengthen the king's power. Haakon was succeeded by his infant grandson, the Swedish prince Magnus. He was buried in St. Mary's church in Oslo. Remains of two people, deemed to be Haakon and Eufemia, were discovered during excavations of the ruins of that church and reinterred at Akershus Fortress.
