Marguerite of Provence, Queen of Louis IX, was the last French queen to use the title of Queen of the Franks.
This is a list of the women who have been queens consort of the Frankish people. As all kings of the Franks have been male, there has never been a queen regnant of the Franks (although some women have governed as regents).
A timeline of consorts Frankish rulers is difficult since the realm was frequently divided among the sons of a king upon his death and then eventually reunited. Also, polygamy and concubinage complicate matters. Of most Merovingian queens almost nothing but the name is known.
This list starts from the earliest known queens until the three-way split up of the Frankish Empire in the Treaty of Verdun in 843.
