Helena of Denmark
Princess Helena of Denmark (also Helene Valdemarsdatter) (c. 1180 – 22 November 1233 in Lüneburg) was heiress of Garding and Lady of Lüneburg.
Helena was daughter of Valdemar I of Denmark and Sophia of Minsk and sister of Ingeborg of Denmark, Queen of France.
In her youth, she was betrothed to a son of Frederick I Barbarossa. In 1184, the marriage was reportedly cancelled after her brother, Canute IV, refused to swear fealty to the Emperor.
