    Berengaria of Navarre (Basque: Berengela, Spanish: Berenguela, French: Bérengère; c. 1165–1170 – 23 December 1230) was Queen of England as the wife of Richard I of England. She was the eldest daughter of Sancho VI of Navarre and Sancha of Castile. As is the case with many of the medieval English queens, relatively little is known of her life.

    Traditionally known as "the only English queen never to set foot in the country", she may in fact have visited the country after her husband's death, but did not do so before, nor did she see much of him during her marriage, which was childless. She did (unusually for the wife of a Crusader) accompany him on the start of the Third Crusade, but mostly lived in his French possessions, where she gave generously to the Church, despite difficulties in collecting the pension she was due from Richard's brother and successor John after she became a widow.

    d. after 1230. Daughter of Sancho VI of Navarre; wife of Richard I of England, from 1191 to 1199 (his death). Berengaria was betrothed to Richard in 1190, and accompanied him on his way to the Holy Land for the Third Crusade in 1191. However, in April 1191 her ship was driven by a storm into Limassol harbour on Cyprus; and the island's ruler, Isaac Comnenus, threatened her. Richard overran Cyprus, and married Berengaria at Limassol on 12 May 1191. The marriage gave Richard a Spanish ally against the French in the person of Sancho VII, the Bold, of Navarre, Berengaria's brother. The couple had no children. Adam of Eynsham records her as grief-stricken at her husband's death in 1199, after which she lived at Le Mans, in France, where she was famed for alms-giving.
