BIOGRAPHY
Son of Baudouin I, count of Flanders, and Judith, daughter of Emperor Charles 'the Bald', Baudouin was born about 863, and became count of Flanders on his father's death in 879. From his stronghold at Bruges he maintained, as his father Baudouin I before him, a vigorous defence of his lands against the incursions of the Norsemen. On his mother's side a descendant of Charlemagne, he strengthened the dynastic importance of his family by marrying Elftrudis/Alfthryth of Wessex, daughter of Alfred 'the Great', king of England. Baudouin II and Elftrudis had four children, of whom their son Arnulf I would continue his line. He annexed lands and rights in the area between the river Schelde and Artois and had his opponents murdered. He died on 10 September 918 and was buried in the Abbey of St.Peter in Ghent.
