Gyrid Olafsdottir of Sweden (also Gyrithe Olafsdottir or Gunnhild) was a 10th-century
Swedish princess and a Danish queen consort as the spouse of King Harald Bluetooth
of Denmark.
Biography[edit]
Gyrid was the daughter of King Olof Björnsson of Sweden and Queen Ingeborg
Thrandsdotter. According to several sagas, her brother, Prince Styrbjörn Starke,
accompanied her to Denmark in order to arrange her marriage to Harald Bluetooth.
Styrbjörn Starke in turn married Tyra (Tyri Haraldsdatter), who was a daughter of
Harald Bluetooth. After the death of King Harald (986 or 987 CE), nothing more is
recorded about Gyrid.
