  • (Geschiedenis) .Source 1
    Liutgard stond bekend om haar sterke wil en haar politieke ambities, die zij aan haar echtgenoten doorgaf. Zo was zij erg ontstemd toen haar eerste man in 878 een verdrag sloot met Lodewijk de Stamelaar, waarin die zijn gezag over het hertogdom Lotharingen erkende. Liutgard vond dat haar man een veel beter resultaat had kunnen bereiken als zij maar aanwezig was geweest om hem te adviseren. Na de dood van Lodewijk de Stamelaar overtuigde ze haar man Lodewijk om een veldtocht te beginnen om koning van West-Francië te worden, echter zonder succes.
