Merovingian king of Paris from 511, who helped to incorporate Burgundyinto the Frankish realm.
Childebert was a son of Clovis I and Clotilda. He received lands innorthwestern France, stretching from the Somme down to Brittany, in thepartition of his father's kingdom in 511; to these he added part of thekingdom of Orléans in the 520s (by the murder of his brother Chlodomer'syoung heirs), part of the kingdom of Burgundy in 534 (by conquest, withhis brother Chlotar I), and Provence in 537 (by treaty). After a campaignin 531 against the Visigoths, who still held the coastal strip betweenthe Rhône and the Pyrenees, he invaded Spain itself in 542 in alliancewith Chlotar; although the expedition had no great success, he did bringback with him the tunic of the martyred St. Vincent, housing this in anew foundation at Paris that came to be called Saint-Germain-des-Prés.Childebert left no sons, and his lands were taken over by Chlotar on hisdeath.
