Queen of Edward I of England, the daughter of
Ferdinand III of Castile. She married Prince
Edward 1254, and accompanied him on his
crusade 1270. She died at Harby,
Nottinghamshire, and Edward erected stone
crosses in towns where her body rested on the
funeral journey to London. Several Eleanor
Crosses are still standing, for example at
Northampton.
