He was an only child. He died at the age of 47 on August 19th, 1245 in France.General Notes
Berenger was the last and most illustrious of the Royal Provençal Counts; and,
even had he not been the sovereign of the land of song, his own verses would
have entitled him to a distinguised rank among the Troubadour poets.
He was relatively impoverished count who could provide little dowry for his
daughters.
