Margaret of Bohemia (29 September 1373 – 4 June 1410) was the younger daughter of Holy Roman Emperor Charles IV and his fourth wife Elizabeth of Pomerania. Her siblings included Anne of Bohemia and Holy Roman Emperor Sigismund.

Biography

In 1381, Margaret married John III, Burgrave of Nuremberg. The marriage only produced one child:

  • Elizabeth of Nuremberg (1391–1429), who married Eberhard III, Count of Württemberg, and had issue.
  • Margaret died in 1410, aged thirty-six, and her husband died ten years later in 1420; he did not remarry after Margaret's premature death.

    Her daughter Elizabeth gave birth to a granddaughter, also called Elizabeth. The younger Elizabeth was engaged to Albert III, Duke of Bavaria, but instead married John III of Werdenberg.
