Isabeau de Bavire (also Isabella of Bavaria-Ingolstadt) (about 1369 – September 24, 1435) was a Queen of France (1380 - 1422) after marrying Charles VI of France, a member of the Valois Dynasty, on July 17, 1385. She was the daughter of Stephan III, Duke of Bavaria-Ingolstadt and Thadea Visconti. Her paternal grandparents were Stephen II, Duke of Bavaria and Elizabeth, Princess of Sicily, daughter of Frederick III of Sicily and his wife Eleonora. Eleonora was herself a daughter of Charles II of Naples and Maria of Hungary. Maria was a daughter of Stephen V of Hungary and Elizabeth of Cumania. Elizabeth was daughter of Koteny or Kuthens, a chieftain apparently descending from the Kipchaks. Her maternal grandparents were Barnabo Visconti (d. 1385), Lord of Milan and Regina-Beatrice della Scala. Regina was daughter of Mastino II della Scala , Lord of Verona from 1329 to 1351 and his wife Taddea di Cararra. As the King of France was insane, his wife, Isabeau de Bavire, came to terms with King Henry V of England, and by the treaty of Troyes (1420) the Crown of France was to pass away from the Dauphin to the issue of Henry and Catherine_of_Valois. When Henry V died, his son was declared King of France and England under the title of Henry VI. Isabeau de Bavire died at Paris and is interred in Saint Denis Basilica.
