Nils Henriksson
Nils Henriksson (or Niels Henrikssøn, circa 1455–1523) was a Norway, Norwegian knight, landowner, National Counselor and Lord High Steward of Norway who married Inger, Lady of Austraat, Ingerd Ottesdatter (''fru Inger til Austrått''). He was the son of National Counselor ''Henrik Jensson'' (ca 1415–477) and ''Elin Nilsdatter'' (or ''Nikolasdatter''), and through the marriage with Ingerd he consolidated his possession of the Austrått estates. He was one of Norway's largest landowners, with properties in Bergen, Vardøhus, Hålogaland, Fosen, Frosta, Stjørdal, Sunnmøre, Romsdal, Edøy, Selbu and Herjedalen.

The title Lord High Steward of Norway which he held in 1514–1515 was most probably an honorary title that was awarded for the trip during the summer of 1515, when he playe ...

Gyldenløve (noble Family)
: ''For the royal illegitimate sons in Denmark-Norway, see Gyldenløve.'' Gyldenløve (English language, English: lit. ''Golden Lion'') is the modern name of a medieval and now extinct family of the Norwegian nobility. During the Late Middle Ages Gyldenløve was one of the most important families in Norway's social and political life. The family's most prominent member was Nils Henriksson (died 1523), Lord High Steward of Norway, whose wife was Lady Inger Ottesdotter Rømer, heiress of Austrått.

However, based on the family's coat of arms, which shows a lion, believed to represent their verified royal descent from the House of Sverre, some of the members of the very last gene ...

Christian II
Christian II (1 July 1481 – 25 January 1559) was a Scandinavian monarch under the Kalmar Union who reigned as King of Denmark and Norway, from 1513 until 1523, and Sweden from 1520 until 1521. From 1513 to 1523, he was concurrently Duke of Schleswig and Holstein in joint rule with his uncle Frederick. As king, Christian tried to maintain the Kalmar Union between the Scandinavian countries which brought him to war with Sweden, lasting between 1518 and 1523. Though he captured the country in 1520, the subsequent slaughter of leading Swedish nobility, churchmen, and others, known as the Stockholm Bloodbath, caused the Swedes to rise against his rule. He was deposed in a rebellion led by the nobleman and later king of Sweden Gustav Vasa.

The nobility rose against him in 1523, and he was exiled to the Netherl ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
