M%C3%A9cia Lopes de Haro

Mcia Lopes de Haro was a CastilianBiscayan noblewoman, the wife successively of count lvaro Prez de Castro and of King Sancho II of Portugal. The subsequent annulment of her marriage by Pope Innocent IV has led to disagreement over whether she should be counted among the Queens consort of Portugal. She played a central role in the Portuguese political crisis of 1245.

Mcia Lopes was born in Biscay, the daughter of Lope Daz II de Haro, lord of Biscay, and of Urraca Alfonso of Len. Her mother was an illegitimate daughter of Alfonso IX of Len. She was thus niece of the reigning king, Ferdinand III of Castile.
